ADJUSTMENTS AND MAINTENANCE
5-28
FOOT BRAKES
To bleed or to replace the brake linings, contact your
local dealer.
Have the linings checked:
S when the brake warning light comes on
S every 400 hours in normal conditions
S every 200 hours in heavy brake conditions
(e.g. ‘‘spin turns’ ’ in maize, steep hills)
Clean the brakes every 200 hours with compressed
air.
FLUID CHANGE
The brake fluid has to be changed every two years.
Contact your dealer to carry out this job.
CAUTION:
S In case of leakage or malfunction of
the brake system, immediately con-
tact your New Holland dealer .
S The seals of the brake slave cylinders
contain fluoroelastomers which,
when used under normal conditions,
are perfectly safe.
If, however, they are exposed to tem-
peratures in excess of 315° C, the ma-
terial will not burn, but decompose.
An extremely corrosive acid is then
formed which is almost impossible to
remove once it has contaminated the
skin.
