3 CIRRUS AIRPLANE MAINTENANCE MANUAL Brakes CHAPTER -: BRAKES GENERAL -: BRAKES 1. General This chapter describes that portion of the system which provides for stopping the aircraft while on the ground and taxiing/directional control of the aircraft. Includes items such as the hydraulic brake fluid system, brake calipers, discs, and pad assemblies. The brake system consists of an aluminum brake assembly on each main landing gear with single steel disc and two sintered (metal/ceramic) brake pads, master cylinder for each rudder pedal, hydraulic fluid reservoir, parking brake, and associated hydraulic tubing and hoses. The hydraulically operated brakes are individually activated by floor mounted toe pedals located at both pilot stations. The master cylinders are located forward of the each rudder pedal. The hydraulic fluid reservoir is located in the nose compartment on the upper RH side of FS 7.5. The reservoir is serviced with MIL-PRF-8757 hydraulic fluid. A parking brake mechanism holds induced hydraulic pressure on the disc brakes for parking. The parking brake system consists of a parking brake valve, control cable with handle, indication switch, and associated hydraulic tubing and hoses. The parking brake valve is mounted to the forward cabin skin, outboard of the pilot rudder pedals. The parking brake control cable handle is mounted to the LH console rib on the pilot-side under GTC#1. A position sensor, mounted adjacent to the parking brake valve actuation arm, sends position data to the MFD via the GEA 71 engine airframe unit. An alert indicates in the CAS window of the MFD when the parking brake is set. 1 9 Jul AMM_TR_--01

16 CHAPTER -: BRAKES CIRRUS AIRPLANE MAINTENANCE MANUAL I. Bleeding the Brake System (See Figure --) If a brake line has been disconnected or the brake pedal has a spongy feel, there is a strong likelihood that air has entered the brake system. To ensure proper braking, all trapped air must be removed from the brake system. If brake fluid contaminates the disc, it must be completely cleaned with solvent. Do not apply solvent directly to the brake caliper. Solvent will damage seals. If brake fluid contaminates the brake pads, they must be replaced. The pads are porous and cannot be adequately cleaned with solvent. (1) Adjustment/Test - Bleeding the Brake System (a) Acquire necessary tools, equipment, and supplies. Description P/N or Spec.

Refill if less than one gallon of fluid is left with either new or recycled fluid. Filter fluid and follow procedure on tank. Verify valve on feed tubing is closed and pressure regulator is turned to zero (fully counter-clockwise). Connect an air source to the hydraulic tank. Slowly pressurize tank by adjusting regulator until pressure reaches 10 PSI. Place opposite end of feed tube in to empty gallon container. Open valve on feed tube and allow system to flow until all air has been purged, and then close valve. Remove and retain plastic plug from top of brake reservoir. Temporarily install 1/8" NPT fitting and feed tubing to reservoir. Connect overflow tubing to flared end of bleeder valves on both brake calipers. Place opposite tubing ends in empty gallon container. (m) Loosen both bleeder valves one turn. (n) Verify parking brake is off. (o) Slowly increase tank pressure by adjusting regulator until both gauges reach 5 to 0 psi. (p) Open feed valve from hydraulic tank to tubing attached to reservoir. (q) Verify there are no leaks in system. Address any leaks in system before continuing brake bleeding procedure. (r) (s) (t) (u) NOTE It is acceptable if fluid at the calipers is not yet clear of bubbles. Ensure end of RH overflow tubing is completely submerged in fluid. For approximately 1 to minutes, allow fluid to flow until feed tube is clear of bubbles and there is fluid flowing out of overflow tubing attached to both calipers. Move tubing as necessary to push air through system. Caliper may be damaged if bleeder is over tightened. Close bleeder valve on left side. Leave bleeder valve on right side open one turn.
