The attached picture is looking from the seat (raised) directly into the engine compartment pump area.
Red Arrow - After changing hydraulic fluid (oil) you will need to bleed the line by using the hose provided by PT. Attach here and run the line to the hydraulic tank. Remove spark plug wires from spark plugs and turn engine over for a few seconds. This should remove any air in the line.
Green Arrow - This is the screw you loosen to release the brakes using an allen wrench.
The above procedures are also used on the older 425's but located in a different area.

Yes, after talking with you I started looking around my MSN program and found they had a photo section. That is when I got into trouble with the PNG file, then you fixed.
This is the first posting that I have done that could be used for a master file of photos and explanations (owner’s manual).
We just need to figure how to keep them all together and easy to find.
