Operation
Split-System Feature
WARNING
To prevent personal injury and / or death, or
property damage, if part of the brake system fails,
reduce speed and employ safe driving practices
as stopping distance may increase under the
failed condition or if only one section of the brake
system is operating. Have brake system repaired
immediately.
Loss of braking capability could
cause an accident.
The system is divided into two separate channels: the primary
channel (controls front axle) and the secondary channel (controls
rear axle). The brake master cylinder is connected to brake lines
that are routed to the front and rear brake channels.
With the split brake system, the operator is has limited brake
control should one of the two channels fails. If one of the motor
/ pump related systems fail, the driver may not detect any
difference in the feel of the pedal, but with a failure in the master
cylinder circuit, the driver may experience a longer pedal stroke
to attain desired stopping. If a brake system failure occurs, one
of the instrument panel gauge cluster warning indicators should
illuminate.
Manual Foot Operated Parking Brake System with Hydraulic
Brakes
WARNING
To prevent personal injury and / or death, or
property damage, when parking your vehicle,
always use the parking brake. When parking on a
grade, install wheel chocks and turn front wheels
to keep the vehicle from rolling into the traveled
portion of the roadway. Failure to follow these
procedures could cause an unattended vehicle
to move, resulting in property damage, personal
injury or death.
The purpose of the parking brake is to hold the vehicle in the
parked position. It should NOT be used to brake the vehicle
during normal driving. It may be used to assist in making an
emergency stop in the event of service brake failure.
The manual parking brake is controlled by the parking brake
pedal.
Always observe the gauge instrument panel gauge
cluster PARKING BRAKE indicator to determine if the parking
brake is applied or released.
