Brake Lever FEATURES AND CONTROLS 1 The Predator ATV has a single brake lever for the front 2 3 brakes. It's located on the right handlebar. The front brakes are applied by squeezing the brake lever (1) toward the handlebar. The front brakes are hydraulically activated disc type brakes. Always test brake lever travel and master cylinder fluid level before riding. When squeezed, the lever should feel firm. Any sponginess would indicate a possible fluid leak or low master cylinder fluid level, which must be corrected before riding. Contact your dealer for proper diagnosis and repairs. WARNING Operating the ATV with a spongy brake lever can result in loss of braking, which could cause an accident. Never operate the ATV with a spongy-feeling brake lever. 55
