The vehicle is equipped with dual front
hydraulic disc brakes and a rear hydraulic
disc brake.
The four wheel simultaneously brakes are
operated by pushing the foot brake pedal.
Proper maintenance of the brake system is
a necessary part of safe operation of your
unit. The brake systems should be inspected
and tested before each riding session.
Braking Systems
The fluid level should fill at least of the
cup when the unit is setting on a level
surface.
Test the brakes by applying pressure to the
brake pedal and trying to push the unit
forward. if the wheel rotates while the brakes
are applied, check your fluid level and brake
pads. If the brake pedal feels spongy or
does not stop when squeezed, you may
have air in the lines. All air must be purged
from the brake lines for the disc brake to
operate properly. (See purging brake lines).
The Brake Hoses Inspection
Visually inspect the brake hose for any
signs of wear or leaks. Check the fluid level
in the fluid reservoir by checking the position
of cup on the left side of the dashboard.
After riding your unit, be sure to clean any
build up of mud, sand and dirt from the brake
rotor skid plate. This will protect the rotor
disc from rust and corrosion.
