Brake Fluid Reservoir
The brake fluid reservoir is situated under the right hand bonnet on RHD
vehicles and under the left hand bonnet on LHD vehicles.
Every 5,000 miles (8,000km) check fluid level in the reservoir. There is a
minimum and maximum level mark on the rear of the reservoir, the fluid
should be filled to the maximum mark. If necessary replenish using a funnel
and flexible hose to within ½” (12mm) of the top with DOT 4 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.
The brake fluid in the system must be drained and replaced every 2 years.
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.
WARNING Use only the specified brake fluid; using the incorrect fluid
may cause damage to the brake system.
WARNING 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.
