Using your Shimano rear disc brake BR - MT410 with BL - MT401 left lever is easy. First, make sure to install it correctly following the included instructions. When you're ready to brake, just gently squeeze the 2 - finger lever. Since it's designed for small hands, it should feel comfortable to grip. Remember, this brake is only compatible with resin pads (Pad Standard: B01S Resin), so don't use other types of pads. For maintenance, check the brake hose regularly for any signs of damage.
