• Overfilling the brake fluid reservoir can result in
spilling brake fluid on hot engine parts, causing
the brake fluid to catch fire. Brake fluid can also
damage painted and vinyl surfaces, care should
be taken to avoid its contact with these surfaces.

nate the brake fluid. Brake seal components could
be damaged, causing partial or complete brake
failure. This could result in a collision.

may damage the clutch system resulting in loss of
clutch function and the ability to shift the transmis-
sion.
