23 Maintenance Procedures
23.5 Check Brake Fluid Level & Leak Check
Inspect the level of the brake fluid before each operation and look
for leaks if the brake fluid is found to be low. The brake fluid reser-
voir is located at the rear of the engine bay on the driver's side.
Maintenance Interval – Check regularly, replace the brake fluid every
300 hours, 36 months, 9000 miles (15,000 Km)
Fluid Spec. – Only use DOT 3.
1. Position the ROXOR on a flat level surface.
2. Verify the engine is off and parking brake set.
3. Unlatch and lift the hood, then place prop rod.
4. View the brake fluid level on the side of the brake fluid reservoir.
5. The brake fluid level should be between the upper MAX and
lower MIN level lines. (see Figure 9)
6. If the brake fluid level is lower than the MIN level line, remove the
cover by pulling it straight up, then add brake fluid until the fluid
level is near the MAX line.
7. Reinstall the cover then apply pressure to the brake pedal for a
few seconds, next check for fluid leakage around the six main
components and their fittings.
After opening a bottle of brake fluid, always discard any
unused portion. Never store or use a partial bottle. Brake fluid is
hygroscopic, meaning it rapidly absorbs moisture from the air. The
moisture results in the boiling temperature of the brake fluid to drop,
which can lead to early brake fade and result in severe injury or acci-
dents.
Replace brake fluid any time the fluid becomes con-
taminated, or the type and brand of the fluid in the reservoir is
unknown to prevent system damage.
