The Motor-Propelling set is taken out and
then placed on a stand.
Re- Mounting
The steps are taken in the re verse order (see dismantling / taking apart).
To do:
-the filling-up a nd the drainage of the cooling circuit (see Chapter “ Filling-up and
Dr aining”).
CAUTION! USE ONLY TYPE D A NTIFREEZE.
- filling-up the engine and the gearbox with oil;
- filling-up and draining the clutch hydraulic command circuit (see Chapter “Draining
of the clutch hydraulic command circuit”); The liquid to use is brake fluid type SAE J 1703, DOT 3, DOT 4.
The screws and the screw-nuts of the couple are fastened back.
When mounting, line up markings from hoses and related parts.
The Motor-Propelling set is upheld by
the two handles, by means of a m oving
lifting device (a mobile crane);
The four screws fixing the Motor-Propel-
ling set ba ttery stand are taken off, as well
as the screw-nut of t he elastic buffer;

FAILURE : LONG PEDAL
When braking, the bra ke pedal is slowly moving.

No
Is the brake fluid

Replace the brake pump, because the pressure gas-

BRAKING SYSTEM DIAGNOSTIC
I. CONSTANT EFFECT TO THE PEDAL
EFFECTS
To u g h pedal:
High effort for small deceleration.
Elastic pedal
In order to di agnose, an i ncident where
the use was normal is t o be analyzed and
two tests are to be perform ed:
1. While driving the vehicle :
Interpretation tes t: pedal stroke/
deceleration rate.
2. While vehicle i s stopped, engine c ut.
Additional test of bra ke pedal press:
Pe rform five c onsecutive pressings on the
brake pedal in order to vacuum the
se rvobrake, before taking into
consideration the test re sult.
Long pedal
The test i s to be performed with stopped
vehicle and cut engine. REMARK:
It is neces sary to perform five
consecutive pressings on the brak e
peda l, in o rd er t o v a cuum t he
s ervobrake before takin g into
consideration the test result.
Floor pedal
The test i s to be performed with stopped
vehicle and cut engine.
REMARK :
Perfor m five consecutive pressings on
the brake pedal, i n order to vacuum the
s ervobrake before takin g into
consideration the test result. POSSIBLE CAUSES
- Assi stance defect
- Brake linings:
- greasy
- stacking to the disk ( non-conform )
- heating, prolonged bra king with c onstant
pedal pre ss
- Stuck piston
- Rigid duct narrowed (flattening)
- Air presence in the c ircui t: de fective
purging
- Internal leak in the braking circuit.
- Leak of fluid from reservoir (external fluid
leak from braking circuit).
Automatic adjustment : ha nd brake c able too
tighten. - Important and asymmetric wear of the
b rake linings
- St roke too ample between the servobrake
pushing rod and the brake pump
- Brake fluid having high temperature.
- Hydraulic leak (check the sealing of
the braking system components)
- Sealing gaskets defects of the two
b rake pump circuits.
- Brake fluid having high temperature

BRAKE FLUID
PERIODICITY OF THE BREAK FLUID CHANGE
The manufacturing conception of the brakes equipping the Dacia vehicles, especially
the di sks brake type (F 54 inner empty pistons, low qua ntity of fluid in t he c ylinders,
sliding calipers avoiding existence of a fl uid reserve in the less cooled area of t he wheel)
enable t he m aximum re jection of fluid vapori zation ri sk, even in c ase of intensive using of
brakes (mountain are a). The current bra ke fluids are subject in all cases to a slight degradation during the fi rst
months of use by a slight humidity absorpt ion seri es (see the Vehicle Warra nty and
Maintenance Booklet, for brake fluid change)
LEVEL COMPLETION
The wear of brakes pads and shoes generate a gradually diminution of brake fluid level
in its reservoi r. It is useless t o compensate t his diminution, because the level will be re -
stored in the moment of next changing the brake pads and shoes. Obviously, in the mean-
time, the level of brake fl uid in re servoir must not go down bellow the minimal mark.
HOMOLOGATED BRAKE FLUIDS
The mixture i n t he bra king circuit of two non compatible brake fluids may leads to loss
important risks mainly due to gasket damage
In order t o avoid such risks, it is obligatory t o use bra ke fluids checked and approved by
our laboratories and which are accordi ng to Norm SAEJ 1703, DOT 4.

BRAKING CIRCUIT PURGING
AIR ELIMINATION FROM THE H YDRAULIC
CIRCUIT (PURGING)
The air existence in the hydraulic circuit may be noticed by an elastic displacement of
the bra ke pedal, sometimes even, close to the floor. T his fact is more e vident with the
engine stopped.
GE NERA L RECOMMENDATIONS
Always use for completion or total changing, the brake fluid Norm SAE J 1703 , DOT 4.
In case of changing the brake fluid, it is necessary to wash the system with one liter of
industrial alcohol (diluted). Du ring the purging, the brake fluid from the reservoir must not go down bellow the
minimal level marke d on the re servoir.
To perform the operation, one person will stay on the driver place, to push the brake
pedal and the other one will perform the purging (bleeding) at the wheels using a 500 ml
vessel, a tra nsparent plastic tube and brake fl uid for completion.
NOTE
The brake fluid resulted after performing t he purging operation, IS NOT TO BE
RE-USED but only after 48 hours, in order to avoid air-bubbling ge neration on the
hydraulic circuit which shall have as effect an elastic brake pedal.
WORKING PROCEDURE
Place on the purging screw, a transparent tube with its end in a vessel with bra ke fluid
and proceed as follows: - press the brake pedal slowly, di smount t he purging screw, maintaining the full
str oke of the pedal, then tighten the screw and slowly re lease the brake pedal. Repeat the
same procedure until complete cease of air bubbles. Proceed in the same way also for the
other purgi ng places.(take i nto c onsideration t he existence all t he t ime of t he bra ke fl uid i n
the reservoi r)
Observation:
Before beginning the purging procedure, dismount the I.C.P. indicator from the pump,
which shall be remounted at the end of t he operation.
It is important to observe the fol lowing sequence of the purging places:
