The vehicle is equipped with a hydraulic clutch so, for the most part, wear in the clutch friction disc is automatically compensated for. If the clutch is working satisfactorily, further checking is not strictly necessary. Poor clutch operation may indicate the need for bleeding the hydraulic system. Otherwise, the pedal travel and stroke may be checked and adjusted. The braking system is self-adjusting. Provided the brake pedal feels satisfactory and the brakes work effectively, the chances are that the pedal does not need adjusting. Excessive brake pedal travel may indicate that the brakes need bleeding. Otherwise, if the pedal seems set too low, the free play is excessive, or if the history of the car is unknown, the brake pedal can be checked and adjusted.
