Brakes

Brammo Statement

Your Enertia is equipped with front and rear hydraulic braking systems that dissipate heat generated by the friction of the brake pads on the brake discs as the wheels are slowed. As the brake pads wear, the brake fluid levels will drop. A leak in either of the systems will also cause the level to drop. Frequently inspect the systems to ensure there are no fluid leaks. Periodically inspect the brake fluid levels and the brake pads for wear. If the brake lever or brake pedal freeplay does not feel within the normal range while riding, check the brake pads for wear. Worn pads should be replaced. If the pads are not worn beyond the recommended limit, there is probably air in the brake system. See your BRAMMO Authorized Service Agent to have the air bled from the system.

Brake Fluid Recommendation

The recommended brake fluid is DOT 4 Brake Fluid, or any brake fluid of equal quality and performance. Use fresh brake fluid from a sealed container. Be sure to read the label before opening the sealed container. An opened container may be contaminated or may have absorbed moisture from the air.

Fluid Level Inspection

1. Place your Enertia in an upright position on a firm, level surface.

2. Check the fluid levels of the front and rear brake fluid reservoirs. The fluid should be above the MIN marks. If your inspection indicates a low fluid level, have your BRAMMO Authorized Service Agent add the recommended brake fluid. Do not add or replace brake fluid, except in an emergency. If you do add fluid, have your BRAMMO Authorized Service Agent check the system as soon as possible.

Other Inspections

1. Make sure there are no fluid leaks

2. Check for deterioration or cracks in the hoses and fittings.
