3. පිහිටුවීම සහ ස්ථාපනය

Proper installation is crucial for the safe and effective operation of your hydraulic disc brake caliper. It is highly recommended that installation be performed by a qualified bicycle mechanic.

3.1 පූර්ව ස්ථාපන චෙක්පත්

• Ensure your frame/fork is compatible with flat mount calipers.
• Verify you have the correct hydraulic hose length and appropriate rotors for your setup.
• Confirm all necessary mounting hardware is present.

3.2 ස්ථාපන පියවර (සාරාංශය)

1. Mount the caliper to the frame/fork using the specified flat mount bolts.
2. Connect the hydraulic hose to the caliper and brake lever, ensuring a secure, leak-free connection.
3. Bleed the hydraulic system to remove any air, following SRAM's Bleeding Edge procedure.
4. Align the caliper with the rotor to prevent rubbing and ensure even pad contact.
5. Adjust the brake lever reach and contact point to your preference.

Refer to the detailed SRAM technical manual for comprehensive installation instructions and torque specifications.

4. මෙහෙයුම

The SRAM Force AXS eTap Hydraulic Disc Brake Caliper provides powerful and modulated braking. Familiarize yourself with its operation before riding.

4.1 Braking Technique

• Apply brake pressure smoothly and progressively.
• Modulate braking force by varying lever pressure, especially in wet conditions or on loose surfaces.
• Avoid sudden, hard braking unless in an emergency, as this can lead to loss of control.

4.2 Contact Point Adjustment

Your brake lever features contact point adjustment, allowing you to fine-tune the point in the lever's travel where the pads engage the rotor. This personalization enhances rider comfort and control. Consult your SRAM lever manual for specific adjustment procedures.

5. නඩත්තු කිරීම

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and consistent performance of your brake caliper. Always use appropriate tools and follow manufacturer guidelines.

5.1 Brake Pad Replacement

The organic brake pads with steel backing are designed for excellent modulation and fade resistance. Replace pads when they show signs of wear, typically when the pad material is less than 0.5mm thick.

5.2 Hydraulic System Bleeding

Over time, air can enter the hydraulic system, leading to a spongy brake lever. SRAM's Bleeding Edge technology simplifies the bleeding process, making it quick and clean. Use only DOT hydraulic fluid as specified by SRAM.

5.3 පිරිසිදු කිරීම

Keep your caliper clean from dirt and debris. Use a clean cloth and mild soap and water. Avoid using harsh chemicals or solvents that could damage seals or finishes.

6. පොදු ගැටළු දෝශ නිරාකරණය

Below are some common issues and potential solutions. If you are unable to resolve an issue, consult a qualified bicycle mechanic.

• Spongy Brake Lever: This usually indicates air in the hydraulic system. Perform a brake bleed using SRAM's Bleeding Edge technology.
• Brake Rubbing: The caliper may be misaligned with the rotor. Loosen the caliper mounting bolts slightly, squeeze the brake lever to center the caliper, then retighten the bolts. Ensure the rotor is true.
• අධික ශබ්දය: Can be caused by contaminated pads/rotor, misaligned caliper, or worn pads. Clean the rotor and pads (if not contaminated beyond cleaning), realign the caliper, or replace worn pads.
• Reduced Braking Power: May be due to worn pads, air in the system, or contaminated pads/rotor. Inspect pads, bleed the system, or clean/replace contaminated components.
