BRAKE SYSTEM
BRAKE HOSE AND FITTING INSPECTION
Check brake system hoses and fittings for cracks,
deterioration, abrasion, and leaks. Tighten any loose
fittings and replace any worn or damaged parts.

brake fluid reservoir level before each operation. If the
fluid level is low, add DOT 4 brake fluid only.

should also be changed anytime the fluid becomes
contaminated, the fluid level is below the minimum level,
or if the type and brand of the fluid in the reservoir is
unknown.

accessed through the left front wheel well.

level should be between the MAX and MIN level
lines.

brake fluid until it reaches the MAX level line.
5. Install the reservoir cap and apply the brake pedal
forcefully for a few seconds and check for fluid
leakage around the master cylinder fittings and the
brake caliper fittings.
