Safety, silence and simplicity are | of the new lors six-brake er Th © mh ZALES [axed bez roti ONE of the first things you will notice when you drive the new Ford is the quick, effective, silent action of its six-brake system. This system gives you the highest degree of safety and reliability because the four- wheel service brakes and the separate emergency or park- ing brakes are all of the mechanical, internal ex- panding type, with braking surfaces fully enclosed for protection against mud, water, sand, etc. The many advantages of this type of braking system have long been recognized. They are Brought to you in the new Ford through a series of mechanical im- provements embodying much that is new in design and manufacture. A particu- larly unique feature is the simple way by which a spe- cial drum has been con- structed to permit the use of two sets of internal brakes on the rear wheels. A further improvement in braking performance is effected by the self-center- ing feature of the four- wheel brakes — an exclusive Ford de- velopment. Through this construction, the entire surface of the shoe is brought in steady, uniform contact with the drum the instant you press your foot on the brake pedal. This prevents screeching and howling and males the Ford brakes unusually silent in operation. Another feature of the Ford brakes is the ease of adjustment, The four-wheel brakes are adjusted by turning a screw convenienily located on the outside of each brake plate. This screw is so notched that all four brakes can be set alike simply by listening to the “clicks.” The emergency or park- ing brakes on the new Ford require little attention. How- ever, should they need ad- justment at any time, cons sult your Ford dealer for prompt, courteous, and 2co- nomical service.
