My brakes are unresponsive. I can no longer "pump them up" as detailed in the manual. I allowed the hydraulic tank to drop slightly below the sight glass. Is this enough to allow air to affect brake function? Assuming my brake line needs bleeding, how do I proceed? Ernie

The brake bleeders are on the top of each rear axle housing. Since trans pump fills brake reservoir one needs to have engine running to successfully bleed the brakes. Brake bleeding procedure is similar to automobiles in that one opens bleeder depresses brake pedal then close bleeder & allow pedal to return to the top then repeat bleeding procedure.
