Page 126 Brake System Argo Service Manual General Instructions Detailed information on standard workshop and safety procedures, and general servicing operations is not included in this manual, which has been prepared to assist qualified service personnel. ODG assumes no responsibility or liability for PERSONAL INJURY or VEHICLE DAMAGE which results from any servicing procedure performed, including those instructions outlined in this manual.
Page 127 Please refer to the appropriate illustrated parts manual for the vehicle being serviced. The parts manual is identified with either the vehicle’s model number, serial number or both written on the front cover. These parts manuals are availible on CD in PDF format. .
Page 128 The pads are coated with oil or grease Removing Brake Pads ( Hydraulic) The hydraulic brake system is used on all models of ARGO vehicles with the exception of the Vanguard 6x6. To replace hydraulic brake pads (Gremica Calipers only)on models manufactured prior to 1996, remove the cotter pins securing the pads within the caliper and slip the brake pads from the caliper towards the drivers compartment.
Page 129 Argo Service Manual Brake System secure the hydraulic brake caliper to the transmission housing. To do this you will need to rotate the tires by hand until they are lined up. Photo BR-1 NEVER attempt to align these with the engine running and in gear.
Page 130 Brake System Argo Service Manual Installing Brake Pads (Hydraulic) When replacing worn or contaminated pads, replace both pads in the brake caliper assembly even if both pads do not require replacing. Using one new and one old brake pad in a caliper assembly may provide poor braking/steering performance.
Page 131 Maintenance Schedule - Inspect every 50 hrs of vehicle operation The brakes must be inspected regularly by a qualified mechanic. Damaged or leaking calipers can seriously impair the ARGO steering/ braking capability. Severe personal injury or property damage could result from a damaged or poorly adjusted brake system.

Page 134 Brake System Argo Service Manual BR-11 BR-10 Remove the bleed screws and check the steel ball from the caliper casting. Photo BR-12 Clean all components in a varsol bath, then a mild soap solution. Use com- pressed air to blow out the caliper cast- ings.
Page 135 Argo Service Manual Brake System When reassembling the caliper, work with clean hands, tools, and parts. Perform the reassembly on a clean, neat surface. Dirt or contaminants on component parts will cause a reduction in brake efficiency and may damage the brake components.
Page 136 Brake System Argo Service Manual BR-15 BR-16 Reinstall the socket head bolts which hold the caliper assembly together. Use blue LOCTITE on the threads of the fasteners. Torque the bolts to the specified torque. Photo BR-17 Place the check ball and bleeding screw back into the threaded mount of the caliper casting.

Removing the Master Cylinder Clean the master cylinder casting and caliper casting and fittings.
Page 138 Brake System Argo Service Manual There are 2 bolts that hold the master cylinders to their mounting bracket. These are secured by 2 nylon locknuts. Remove the 2 nylon locknuts and remove the master cyl- inders from the vehicle to a clean work bench.
Page 139 Argo Service Manual Brake System Models manufactured after May 25, 2000 from S/N CB17145, RB17120, BF11608 and SN11630 have a tapered spring which attaches to the end of the piston. Models prior to this had a shorter spring which did not attach to the piston. The newer spring is fully exchangeable with the older style but should be replaced as a set.
Page 140 The older and newer style spring are fully exchangeable if necessary, but should be changed as a set. Vehicles manufactured from S/N CB17145, RB17120, BF11608 & SN11630 will have the newer spring style.

Page 142 Clean any stray brake fluid that might have found its way on to the brake disc with brake cleaner. Brake fluid on the brake disc can seriously affect braking capabilities of the ARGO vehicle. Pump the steering levers a few times to build up proper pressure and locate the pads in the caliper assembly.
Page 143 Use only Dot 5 silicon brake fluid. Other brake fluids may not be compatible with ARGO brake components and operating temperatures. Inspecting the Brake Fluid Condition Maintenance Schedule- Inspect every 50 hours of vehicle operation.
Page 144 Brake System Argo Service Manual Inspect the condition of the brake fluid and replace if: the fluid appears cloudy the fluid appears discoloured the fluid contains particles of dirt, rust, water, or other contaminants the level is below the viewing window If any of these conditions are noted, Perform the servicing procedure, Changing the Brake Fluid below.
Page 145 Argo Service Manual Brake System Hydraulic Brake Plunger Pin Adjustment IMPORTANT It is critical that the master cylinder pistons are adjusted properly when the steering levers are at the dash block position. Overheating of the brake system could occur due to the piston being adjusted too far in. This could cause a drag on the system and a possible brake lockup.
Page 146 Push the collar up tightly against the tab stop of the steering bracket assembly and re-tighten set screw(s). Apply Blue 242 LOCTITE to the threads of the set screw. The 1/4" clearance between the dash block and engagement of the plunger pin is now set.
Page 147 Argo Service Manual Brake System Holding Brake Adjustment The holding brake system has been factory adjusted to ensure proper braking effectiveness. However, before the vehicle is used for the first time, and after every 25 hours of operation, the adjustment of the holding brake must be inspected.

Adjusting the Mechanical Brake Caliper (Vanguard Models) Remove the vehicle firewall and proceed to tighten both front and rear nuts so that the mechanical caliper assembly is snug to the brake disc. Photo BR-57 This is a good starting point to begin brake caliper clearance adjustment.

Page 341 Do not attempt to move the gearshift from the neutral starting position until the engine idles down completely. The Argo is equipped with an automatic clutch that is activated by engine speed. If the engine idle speed is too high, the transmission will grind during gear engagement.
Page 342 Using any other than the recommended oil could cause serious damage to the transmission components. The approximate refill capacity of the ARGO transmission is 0.85 Liters (1.5 imperial pints, 1.8 U.S pints). However, be sure that it is filled to the full mark on the dipstick. DO NOT OVERFILL.
Page 343 Oil Level Inspection Inspect the transmission oil on a daily basis Do not run the ARGO if the oil level in the transmission shows above or below the mark on the dipstick. Damage to transmission components could occur Place the vehicle on a level surface. This will allow the correct measurement of gear lube in the transmission.
