9.- Service and parking brake

Parking brake (fig. 1,2)
a. Cable cover
If activating the parking brake does not immobilise the dumper, the cables must be
tightened. To do so:
- Can be tightened by both ends of the cable housing.
- Always the maintain the cables free from excessive bends and the joints greased.
Service Brake
The brakes are self-adjusting and therefore require no adjustment.
Brake fluid level (fig. 3)
The tank is located above the brake pump, under the floor panel.
With the dumper on a level surface, the brake liquid must be between the MIN. and MAX.
levels marked.
b. Brake fluid tank
NOTE: Never exceed the maximum level.
Use a funnel to avoid spills.
Place and tighten the filling cap correctly and close the cover.
NOTE: A brake system which frequently required brake fluid indicates that there are
leaks. See an authorised AUSA dealer.
Changing the brake fluid
Check the replacement schedule in the LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE
CHART or replace when the circuit is emptied for repairs. To do so, contact an authorised
AUSA dealer.
Brake pump (fig. 4)
If the pedal has too much play, this can be corrected using the pedal tappet that drives
the brake pump, which has a spring system for moving it.
c. Pump tappet
Allow the pusher to have play of between 1 and 1.5 mm, ensuring that the pump has no
internal pressure.
