Both brake systems are self-adjusting. Perform the following checks to keep the brake systems in good operating condition. Check more often if brakes are used heavily during normal operation. 1. Check the brake system for fluid leaks. 2. Check the brakes for excessive travel or spongy feel. 3. Check the friction pads for wear, damage and looseness. Replace pads when the friction material is worn to .03″ (.8 mm). 4. Check the security and surface condition of the disc. .03″ (.8 mm) 79
