brake pressure is evident.

The t
andem master cylinder contains two in
dependent pistons, fluid pressure to each brake circuit is controlled by its own
individual piston. Brake fluid is supplied to the master cylinder by the reservoir, which is divided into two sections to preve nt
total fluid loss should one of the circuits fail. A port situated at the bottom of each section of the reservoir supplies the f luid
to each piston.
The fluid reservoir has a fluid-le vel indicator switch installed, which operates when the fluid level is low, causing the brake
fluid level warning-lamp to illuminate.
Bra
ke Caliper
The brake
calipers are of the single piston
type. The caliper carrier, which is secured to the vertical link by two bolts, carr ies
the single-piston caliper housing. The cali per housing is secured to the caliper carrier by two guide-pins and an anti-rattle
spring. When the brakes are applied, the caliper-housing piston pushes the brake pad in front of it, to wards the brake disc.
This movement forces the calipe r housing to move along the guid e-pins, in the opposite direction of the piston, to apply the
second brake pad.
Br
embo Brake Caliper
The four
cylinder brake caliper is rigidly attached to the vert
ical link via an anchor bracket. The caliper is a split assembly
with each side of the caliper, housing two pistons. The two-pairs of opposed pistons act direct ly on the brake pads mounted
one each side of the disc.
