AUXILIARY FOOT BRAKE
WARNING
Never back down a hill. Applying the auxiliary brake when backing down a hill
may cause rear tipover, which could result in serious injury or death. Use
caution when applying the auxiliary brake.
The auxiliary brake system is intended to be used as a backup for the main
brake system. Should the main system fail, use the auxiliary foot brake. The
auxiliary foot brake is located on the inside of the right footrest. Operate this
brake with your right foot. If the rear wheels slide while using the auxiliary brake,
reduce brake pedal pressure to brake the rear wheels without skidding.
NOTE
If service brake system is fully functioning, the auxiliary foot brake will brake on
4 wheels. The auxiliary brake can be used when starting the vehicle. To start
the vehicle using the auxiliary foot brake, depress the foot brake and turn the
ignition key to the start position.
BRAKE FLUID LEVEL
Check the brake fluid level frequently for the auxiliary brake system. The
reservoir is located under the seat.
Maintain the fluid level between the maximum and minimum marks. Use DOT 4
brake fluid only.
