ADJUSTMENT OF THE CONTROL LEVER AND FRONT BRAKE
FLUID LEVEL CHECK
The adjuster (1) located on the control lever, allows adjusting
of the free play (a). Free play (a) shall be of at least 3 mm
(0.118 in).
The level of the fluid in master cylinder reservoir must
never be below the minimum value (2), which can be
checked from the inspection window on the rear of the
master cylinder body.
A decrease of the fluid level will let air into the system,
hence an extension of the lever stroke.
A: to increase clearance
B: to decrease clearance

WARNING*: If the brake lever feels
mushy when pulled, there may be air in
the brake lines or the brake may be de-
fective. Since it is dangerous to operate
the motorcycle under such conditions,
have the brake system immediately
checked by the Husqvarna Dealer.
CAUTION*: Do not spill brake fluid onto
any painted surface or light lens.
