DESCRIPTION
The brakes on the front wheels are the
Girling Disc Brakes and on the rear are
Girling
HL.3
Drum Brakes.
All
four
wheels are hydraulically operated by foot
pedal operation, directly coupled to a
CV
master cylinder
in
which the hydraulic
pressure is originated.
A
supply tank
which provides fluid reserve for both brake
and clutch systems is installed to allow for
fluid replenishment.
An
independent mechanical linkage (see
Fig.
6),
actuated by a hand lever control,
operates the rear brakes by levers attached
to the wheel cylinder bodies, thus
acting
as a hand or parking brake.
