Hydraulically controlled
front disk brake
The hydraulic circuit is filled with fluid in compliance with the
DOT3 or DOT4 standard. PEUGEOT uses LOCKHEED D55.
- The fluid level in the hydraulic control,
- The circuit seal,
- The state of the brake pads,
control the braking efficiency.
If the brake control appears to be «spongy» when the brake
is actuated, take your scooter to your dealer for maintenance
PEUGEOT.
- Brakes
Adjusting the rear brake
The brake clearance is the distance that the lever can move
before starting to actuate the brake.
Adjusting the clearance
Clearance : 10 to 20 mm measured at the end of the lever.
- Adjustment nut
- To increase clearance loosen
- To reduce clearance tighten
Brake wear sector
- Reference mark
- Arrow
If the arrow faces the mark when the brake is actuated fully,
the brake blocks must be replaced.
For your SAFETY, PEUGEOT recommends that you:
- Monitor operation of your FRONT and REAR brakes.
- Have adjustment and maintenance operations
performed by a PEUGEOT dealer whenever action
proves to be necessary
- Use PEUGEOT original parts only.
- Braking and parking
Good coordination between the throttle and the FRONT and
REAR brakes is very important.
- Reduce your speed by allowing the throttle to return.
- Pull on the rear and front brakes.
Caution
Braking is less efficient if you only use one brake.
Excessive braking may lock a wheel and make you lose
control of your scooter!
When going down a steep hill, turn the throttle completely
down and use both brakes to reduce your speed and
maintain control of your scooter.
Do not use the brakes continuously, overheating will
reduce braking efficiency.
