Philips screws, for this type of fitting remove both screws.
ACTIVITY 9 - Monthly

Slide brake pad out by applying lateral pressure on the brake
assembly. Please note the brake pads with the 4mm bolt fitting are
handed, so when replacing the existing or fitting new brake pads
ensure they are fitted to the correct side. The brake pads with the
screw fitting are not handed.

ACTIVITY 11 - Monthly
Clean existing or replace worn/damaged brake pads. Before replacing
spray a generous amount of Schwinn Silicone or other silicone-based
spray on both brake pads and replace, after this is completed tighten
the brake knob to the highest resistance for approximately 30 minutes
to allow the lubricant to penetrate through the brake pads. Following
these guidelines will extend the life of the brake pads.

ACTIVITY 12 - Monthly
Teflon based
lubricant
IMPORTANT NOTE: DO NOT REMOVE THE CHAIN GUARD. IT IS
NOT SAFE AND NOT REQUIRED TO LUBRICATE
Lubricate the drive chain through the rear access hole ONLY with a
Teflon based lubricant; two revolutions of the crank arm will lubricate the
entire chain. Do not over lubricate the chain as the lubricant will drip out
the bottom of the chain guard.

ACTIVITY 13 - Quarterly
Remove either the left or right shroud using a Philips screwdriver and
lubricate the tension knob thread with a multipurpose grease can.
