Brakes
The front and rear brakes are hydraulic disc type brakes activated by the
brake pedal. See page 30.
Brake Fluid
Inspect the brake system
routinely. Inspect the level of the
brake fluid before each
operation.
Change the brake fluid every
two years and any time the fluid
becomes contaminated, the fluid
level is below the minimum, or if
the type and brand of the fluid in
the reservoir are unknown.
1. Position the vehicle on a
level surface.
2. Remove the brake fluid access panel on the dash at the left side of
the steering wheel. View the brake fluid level at the reservoir. The
level should be between the upper (MAX) and lower (MIN) level
lines.
3. If the fluid level is lower than the upper level line, add brake fluid to
the upper (MAX) line.
4. Apply the brake forcefully for a few seconds and check for fluid
leakage around the fittings.
After opening a bottle of brake fluid, always discard any unused portion.
Never store or use a partial bottle. Brake fluid is hygroscopic, meaning it
rapidly absorbs moisture from the air. The moisture causes the boiling
temperature of the brake fluid to drop, which can lead to early brake fade and
the possibility of accident or severe injury.
