This car is fitted with servo-assisted brakes. DO NOT move the car without the engine running, as the effort
required will be greatly increased. The car will stop if the pedal is pressed hard enough.
Brake Fluid Reservoir (figure 2 on page 51)
The brake fluid reservoir is situated under the bonnet on the bulkhead on the same side of the car as the driver.
Every 5,000 miles (8,000km) remove the cover and check fluid level in the reservoir. If necessary replenish to
within ½” (12mm) of the top with A.P. Universal Brake Fluid. Replace cover ensuring that the rubber-sealing ring
is in good condition and that the ventilation hole is unblocked. If significant topping-up is required check the
master cylinder, slave cylinders and pipes for leakage, any leakage must be rectified immediately. After
approximately 3 years or 40,000 miles (64,000km) the seals and cups of the hydraulic system should be
inspected and if necessary replaced.
Brakes
The brakes will be inspected regularly during a normal service. Cleanliness is essential when dealing with
brakes as grease or oil cannot be removed from brake linings. Always replace brake parts with genuine Morgan
original specification components.
Warning
Brake fluid is hazardous and will cause illness or even death if swallowed.
Use only the specified brake fluid; using the incorrect fluid may cause damage to the brake system.
Using incorrect brake components or excessively worn components will affect your braking system and may
result in an accident causing serious injury or even death.
