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

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:

MECHAN ICAL ELEMENTS CONTROL

The tightness of the servobrake is checked on the vehi cle, with the hydraulic
circuit under operation.
Connect the vacuum meter between the servobrake and the inlet collector by means of a “ T
” type connector. The connecting hose of the vacuum meter shall be as long as possible.
Start the engine and let it idle run for 1min.
Block the air suction hose by means of the MOT 453 device.
Stop the engine.
If air suction lowers with more than 33 mbar (25Hg) in a 15 seconds period, it means there
is a loss at t he retainer valve (replace the valve) or at t he servobrake m embrane (replace t he
servobrake) Dismount the MOT 453 device
Dismount the vacuum hose
Reinstate the connection be tween t he servobrake and the inlet c ollector by m eans of the
vacuum hose. TIGHTNESS CHECKING

HYDRAULIC RECEIVER REPLACEMENT
This operation shall be performed after dismounting of the engine-gearbox assembly and after
disconnecting of the engine from the gearbox.
DISM OUNTING
Dismount the two attachment screws and dismount the hydraulic receiver.
REMOUNTING
Perform the dismounting operations in the reverse order.
Tighten the screws at the required moment of 2.1 daNm.
PHYDRAULIC CIRCUIT PURGING
1. CIRCUIT REFILLING
Check if the clutch pedal is in the “up” position, maintain it by hand if necessary.
Fill the reservoir with brake fluid.
Remove the protection cap of the purging connection 1.
Connect a transparent hose a t the purging connection to recover the brake fluid.
Retrieve the clip 2 (do not definitely remove it in order to limit the movement of the feeding
pipe).

GEARS CONTROL ADJUSTMENT
This is to be performed after mounting the engine-gearbox assembly and the assembly lever-
control case every time when : - dismounting of the engine-gearbox a ssembly, t he c ontrol ba r or the assembly lever-
control case;
- establishin g of failures such as: gear change impossibility or unexpected gear uncoupling,
gear blocking.
For the gear control adjustment the CV 550 device i s to be used;
M ount the CV 550 device on the assembly lever- control c ase;
A ttach the control bar to the control lever end;
Place the gear lever in the device seat and fix it in this position by means of the device handle;
Tighten the attachment screw 1 of the bar to the lever at the required moment of 1.2 daNm;
Dismount the CV 550 device from the control box.
Check the gears coupling. THE GEARS CONTROL
