stru ction sites,
sand, mud and water,also mixed with oil, can get
into the brakes. This may lead toare duction in
braking ef fect or total brake failure, also as a
re sult of increased wear. The braking characteris‐
tics will vary depending on the material that has
got into the sy stem. Clean the brakes af ter driv‐
ing off-road. If youth en notice a reduced braking
