FEATURES AND CONTROLS

Auxiliary Brake

WARNING

Aggressively applying the rear brake when backing down a hill

may cause rear tipover, which could result in serious injury or

death. If the rear brake is applied aggressively while moving

forward, the rear wheels may skid and slide sideways, causing

loss of control and serious injury or death.
Always use caution when applying the auxiliary foot brake. Do

not apply the auxiliary foot brake aggressively.

The auxiliary foot brake (1) is

located on the inside of the right

floor board and is operated by

the right foot. The auxiliary

brake serves as a backup to the

main brake system if the main

system becomes inoperative. It

activates the rear brakes only.
If the rear wheels slide while

using the auxiliary brake, reduce

brake pedal pressure to brake the rear wheels without skidding.
Check the brake fluid level frequently for the auxiliary brake system.

The reservoir is located under the seat or near the foot brake. Maintain

the fluid level between the maximum and minimum marks.
