6.1.2. Main brake cylinder

The main brake cylinder is used on double-circuit brake systems. Forward right and back left brake mechanisms are put in action by primary piston, and forward left and back right – the secondary piston. The main brake cylinder unites functions of the standard double main brake cylinder, and also the indicator of low level of brake fluid and the regulator of pressure in the brake system.
