The following checks are recommended to keep the brake system in good
operating condition. Check more often if brakes are used heavily under normal
operation.
1. Always keep brake fluid at an adequate level. See page 29.
2. Check the brake system for fluid leaks.
3. Check the brakes for excessive travel or spongy feel.
4. Check the friction pads for wear, damage and looseness. Replace brake
pads when they are worn to .03” (0.762 mm).
5. Check the security and surface condition of the disc. Clean any grease using
a recommended brake cleaner or alcohol. Do not use spray lubricants or
other petroleum-based products. If you discover any damage (cracks,
excessive corrosion, warping) see your dealer for service before operating.
