BRAKE FLUID

Inspection


CHECK BRAKE FLUID LEVEL

- Check that the brake fluid level in the reservoir tank is within the standard (between MAX - MIN lines).
- Visually check around the reservoir tank for brake fluid leakage.
- If the brake fluid level is extremely low (below the MIN line), check the amount of brake fluid and check for brake fluid leaks in the brake system.
- Check for dirt or other foreign material inside the reservoir tank, and check that no oil other than the designated brake fluid has entered the system.

BRAKE PIPING

1.Check for cracking and damage to brake piping (tubes and hoses). If any abnormality is found, replace the pipe.





2.With the vehicle in READY state, depress the brake pedal with a force of 785 N (80 kg) and hold down the pedal for approximately 5 seconds. Check for any brake fluid leakage.

CAUTION:
If brake fluid leakage has occurred, retighten all parts to the specified torque. If any abnormalities are found, replace the part.
