14.1. BRAKE TROUBLES

The brake pulls to one side. This can happen because of the following reasons:  The grease on the brakes discs is spread unevenly, the discs are worn out, or there is leakage on the brake hose which is the brake calliper of the engine. It can also be the oil filter cap, the seals, or the oil pipe.
You can replace the brake pads, brake hose, and the oil filter gasket and check the brake calliper. Another cause may be that the brake cylinders are stuck.  In this case replacement is the only solution.

The brake pedal sinks the first time completely away and by pressure pumps again. The cause is that the rear brake-blocks are worn out. These need to be replaced and / or lined up.

The brake pedals feel ‘spongy’. The cause is air in the brake system. In this case, the entire brake system has to be ventilated.

Loss of the brake fluid. The cause is either a leak in the brake hose, the brake cylinders, brake callipers, or the inside of the cylinder. In this case, you can replace the brake hose and / or the master brake cylinder, and check the callipers.

The break stays on or hangs. The reason is either that the brake cylinders are stuck, the piston may be stuck in the calliper or the pressure pin of the master cylinder does not go far enough back. In this case, you can replace the rear brake cylinders, check the brake callipers and / or adjust the pressure pin.

The balance of the breaks in front and on the rear is not good. This can be caused by the brake cylinders or the pistons being stuck, but often is a matter of a master cylinder that is wrongly attached. The correct order is: the rear hole is for the pipe to the brakes on the front and the front hole is for the brakes on the rear!
