MASTER CYLINDER/BRAKE FLUID
WARNING
An over-full master cylinder may cause brake drag or brake lock-up, which
could result in an accident. Maintain brake fluid at the recommended level. Do
not overfill.
Never store or use a partial bottle of brake fluid. Brake fluid is hygroscopic,
meaning it rapidly absorbs moisture from the air. The moisture causes the
boiling temperature of the brake fluid to drop, which can lead to early brake
fade and the possibility of brake failure, which could result in an accident. After
opening a bottle of brake fluid, always discard any unused portion.
Check the brake fluid in the master cylinder before each ride.
To check the brake fluid in the master cylinder, do the following:
1. Position the ATV on a level surface.
2. Position the handlebars so the master cylinder
q
is level.
3. View the brake fluid level through the indicator window
w
on the side of the
master cylinder. The window will appear dark when the fluid level is at MAX.
When fluid level is at the MIN mark, only the lower half of the indicator will be
dark. If the entire indicator window is clear, the master cylinder is empty of
fluid.
