Exchange of brake pads

If the brake pads have reached their wear limit or should be exchanged for other reasons, proceed
as follows:
Remove the 2 Allen screws (pos.1).
Remove the 2 worn brake pads.
Fit 2 new brake pads.
Screw in 2 new Allen screws
(contained in brake pad set).
Note: Take care that the new brake pads are
safely held in both bores (top and bottom).
Tighten the 2 Allen screws with a torque of
10 Nm / 88 lb. in.
Attention: At each exchange of the brake pads use by all means the new Allen screws
contained in the brake pad set. These are treated by the factory with a securing
agent and can be used only once.
Attention: If the brake pad set is supplied with locking devices, these must be used.

Adjustment and exchange of steering wheel

ROTAX recommends to use exclusively the original steering wheel and to tighten it only with the
fasteners (screw and securing nut) supplied by ROTAX.
Only with the securing nut (high type) it is sufficiently secured against turning in the steering wheel
hub.
The dimension of the plastic material hub is especially matched to the original ROTAX steering
column.
The steering wheel can be adjusted in 2 positions:
The steering wheel can be fitted 25 mm / 0,98 in. lower than standard.
Remove the two fastening screws from the steering wheel hub.
Knock the hub with a plastic hammer into the new position.
Retorque fastening screws.
Note: If you have knocked the hub by error too far down, you can correct the position
again by knocking with a plastic hammer at the central part of the hub.
