9.14 Braking System
(1) Brake Arrangement
Oil immersed multi-plate brakes are fitted and are operated hydraulically. The brake system is
charged with mineral oil not conventional brake fluid. A mechanically applied parking brake is
incorporated.
The reservoir is visible through a slot in the front panel to enable the level to be checked. Figure
9.14. refers. To add fluid the brake reservoir is accessible by removing a cover on the seat
support.

NOTICE
The braking system uses mineral oil not conventional brake fluid. Only use mineral oil to top up
the brake reservoir. Never use conventional brake fluid. Never purge the brake system and refill
with brake fluid as this will damage rubber components in the brake system and may cause brake
failure.
PROCEDURE

2. Clean the area around the filler cap.
3. Remove filler cap and add fluid up to the level mark at the base of the filler neck.
