Do not have a manual for this payloader. Could someone please tell me where the reservoir is for the brake fluid. I cannot seem to find where to put the brake fluid in and should I be using ordinary brake fluid?

An A-64 should have a gear driven pump that looks just like the power steering pump on it's tractors and backhoes, it should be coming off the back of the front engine cover. You should see a cap on the reservoir about 1.25" across. (see picture) I'm not sure but I would thing it would use the same fluid the loader hydraulics used

Thank-you for replying to my dilemma but a friend of mine came down and we traced the hydraulic lines to it. I put hydraulic oil instead of brake fluid because it had glyceroid in it which apparently destroys the rubber seals. I believe the hydraulic fluid will work because the brakes now work. Thanks again.

134d hydraulic fluid is the correct fluid for the brake reservoir on that machine. Any UTF meeting that spec will work.
