Owner’s Manual
Never return brake fluid to the original container or reuse brake fluid due to the possibility of con-
tamination by dirt, grease, moisture. Contaminated brake fluid could cause failure of the braking
system. Dispose of brake fluid in accordance with Federal, state and local codes.
3. Attach a short length of clear hose to the caliper bleed valve and insert
the other end into a suitable clean container containing fresh, clean
brake fluid.
Check the fluid level in the master cylinder frequently during this opera-
tion to prevent air from entering the lines.
4. Start with the passenger side rear brake, then driver side rear brake,
passenger side front brake and finish with driver side front brake. Bleed-
ing the brakes requires an assistant to pump the brake pedal and keep
pressure on the pedal. Bleed the brakes using the following procedure:
a. Build pressure in the brake system, if possible, by slowly pumping
the brake pedal.
b. Open the bleeder valve while an assistant holds pressure on the
brake pedal as the pedal slowly goes through the full stroke.
c. Close the bleeder valve and have the assistant slowly release the brake pedal.
d. Repeat the process until no bubbles can be seen leaving the bleeder valve.
e. Close the valve and move to the next brake.
Park Brake Adjustment
The floor mounted park brake has an adjustment knob on the end of the handle. If
the vehicle starts to roll when the park brake is engaged on a hill, place one foot on
the service brake pedal, turn the adjustment knob clockwise to increase tension on
the brake, release the service brake and check to see if the park brake holds.
Repeat the process if necessary.
POWERTRAIN
To reduce the possibility of severe injury or death from improper servicing techniques:
DO NOT attempt any type of servicing operations before reading all notes, cautions and
warnings in this manual.
Any servicing requiring adjustments to the powertrain while the motor is running must be
made with all four drive wheels raised and vehicle properly supported on jack stands.
To reduce the possibility of motor damage, never operate vehicle at full throttle for more
than 4 - 5 seconds while vehicle is in a ‘no load’ condition.
Reduce the possibility of accidental starting by disconnecting battery at negative terminal
before servicing.
