Section 06-06: Brake System, Hydraulic 1996 Aspire Workshop Manual
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Brake System
The brake system uses the principles of hydraulics to apply the front and rear brakes.
The brake pedal (2455) is connected to a hydraulic servo called the brake master cylinder (2140).
When the brake pedal is pushed, a solid column of fluid is pushed from the brake master cylinder through metal tubing and flexible hoses to the rear wheel cylinders (2261) and front disc brake calipers (2B120).
The rear wheel cylinders and front disc brake calipers are hydraulic actuators where the hydraulic pressure produced in the brake master cylinder is converted into motion.
The pistons in the rear wheel cylinders are forced outward against the brake shoes and linings (2001) which contact a metal braking surface on the brake drum (1126).
The front brake caliper pistons move inward against the brake shoes and linings and contact the metal braking surface of the front disc brake rotor (1125).
When the brake pedal is released, the pressure in the system is relieved and the brake shoes and linings return to their neutral or unapplied position.
