7 Using a rubber mallet, gently tap the clip
into the hole and remove the brake
pipe.
NOTE
Take CARE when forming the brake pipes.
We would prefer you to practice on a piece
of scrap pipe.
Do not attempt to RE-BEND or RE-MAKE
incorrectly formed brake pipe bends as
premature failure of the brake, due to
fracture, may occur.
When a bend is required close to the brake
pipe union, a useful method is to use a
13mm spanner over the union and bending
the pipe around your thumb.
8 Route the left hand pipe from the front
union to the left hand side flexible pipe
bracket (Fig 4.4).

9 Repeat the procedure for the right hand
side.
5 Fitting – Pressure Switch
NOTE:
The brake pressure switch operates the
brake lights when the brakes are applied. It
is mounted underneath the master cylinders
on a mounting bracket welded to the
chassis.
1
Place 1x10mm copper washer on to the
thread of the pressure switch.
2 Screw the brake pressure switch into
the middle of the three way brake union
applying a maximum torque of 7 N/m (5
ft/lbs) (Fig 5.1).
5.1
3 Fit the union to the chassis using an
M6x30mm set screw. and a 6mm steel
washer either side of the union.
5.2
NOTE:
When correctly fitted the copper washer
should be slightly squashed as this will seal
the union and prevent fluid loss.
6 Fitting – Rear Circuit
NOTE:
The rear brake line runs through the tunnel
and requires P-clips. It is worth noting that
this method of fixing can only be done when
the pipes are routed in their final position.
1 Position the rear 3 way union on the flat
plate located to the right of the tunnel
and behind the rear bulkhead (Fig 6.1).
6.1
2 Fix the union to the M6x30mm chassis
stud with M6 nyloc nut placing a washer
either side of the union (Fig 6.2).
6.2
3 From the (rear) master cylinder, route
the small section of pipe to the nearest
part of the pressure switch union (Fig
6.3).
