Checking brake fluid level and cor- recting if necessary Checking ABS sensor spacing and adjusting if necessary Inspections I, II, III Inspections I, II, III Checking brake fluid level Front sensor Max. Max. Min. Min. LT000310 L Note: When checking front brake fluid level, the cover of the brake fluid reservoir must always be horizontal (see SI 00 027 95 (716)). • Check sensor spacing with feeler gauge. Sensor spacing .............................0.50 ... 0.55 mm ................................................ (0.0197...0.0217 in) • To adjust, release sensor (1) and set spacing with spacer plates (shims) (2).
Adding brake fluid • Take off the reservoir cover together with the diaphragm Rear sensor • Check sensor spacing with feeler gauge. Checking brake system Sensor spacing .............................0.60 ... 0.65 mm ................................................ (0.0236...0.0256 in) Inspection III • Check all brake lines for damage and ensure they are fitted in the correct position. • Wipe clean all screw connections of the brake lines. • Operate brake with force and hold for a short space of time at this point. Then inspect brake lines for any leakage points. • To adjust, release sensor (1) and set spacing with spacer plates (shims) (2). 00.15 2 1 LT000 LT000 130 L Note:
When adding brake fluid, note the remaining brake pad thickness. If the brake pads are new, add fluid up to the MAX mark. • Add brake fluid. • Replace the diaphragm and reservoir cover in position. • Tighten the retaining screws without using undue force. Brake fluid grade: Use only brake fluid in quality category DOT 4 (e.g. ATE “SL” brake fluid). 1 2 LT000140
