BRAKE SYSTEM

Brake Fluid Inspection

Always check the brake pedal travel and inspect the

brake fluid reservoir level before each operation. If the

fluid level is low, add DOT 4 brake fluid only.

Brake fluid should be changed every two years. The fluid

should also be changed anytime the fluid becomes

contaminated, the fluid level is below the minimum level,

or if the type and brand of the fluid in the reservoir is

unknown.

The brake fluid master cylinder reservoir can be

accessed through the left front wheel well.

1. Position the vehicle on a level surface.

2. Place the transmission in PARK.

3. View the brake fluid level in the reservoir

. The

level should be between the MAX and MIN level

lines.

4. If the fluid level is lower than the MIN level line, add

brake fluid until it reaches the MAX level line.

5. Install the reservoir cap and apply the brake pedal

forcefully for a few seconds and check for fluid

leakage around the master cylinder fittings and the

brake caliper fittings.

Brake Pad / Disc Inspection

1. Check the brake pads for wear, damage, or

looseness

2. Inspect the brake pad surface for excessive wear.

3. Pads should be changed when the friction material

is worn to 0.040″ (1 mm).

Brake Pad Thickness

Service Limit: 0.040” (1 mm)
