Brake Master Cylinder: Description and Operation

Exploded View Of Compact Master Cylinder Assembly:

This master cylinder is a composite design (plastic reservoir and aluminum body) to be used in a diagonally split system (one front and one diagonally opposite rear brake served by the primary piston, and opposite front and rear brakes served by the secondary piston).

It incorporates the functions of a standard dual master cylinder plus it has a fluid level sensor switch and integral proportioners. The proportioners are designed to provide better front to rear braking balance with heavy brake application.
