REAR BRAKE (DRUM) OPERATION

BUE041126250N02

• The brake pedal is connected to the brake master cylinder. When the brake pedal is depressed, brake fluid is pushed through the double-walled steel lines and flexible hoses to the brake calipers.

• The brake fluid enters the wheel cylinder, forcing the wheel cylinder pistons outward against the brake shoe. The brake shoe presses against the braking surface of the brake drum.

• When the brake pedal is released, the pressure is relieved, returning the caliper piston and the disc pad to the unapplied position.
