ABSTRACT:
The specification discloses a brake system (84) which is particularly adapted for vehicles such as skid steer loaders in which the wheels on each side of the vehicle are driven independently by separate transmissions. The brake system (84) includes a caliper assembly (86) overlying brake discs (66) which are mounted for rotation about a common axis but are individually connected to the transmissions. The brake pucks (98) are actuated by a manual lever (132) connected to a rotatable cam (112) associated with an axial plunger (120). The cam (112) is rotatable about an axis parallel to the bore (96) in the caliper assembly (86) containing the brake pucks (98) and plunger (120), to provide a wider range of motion in a more compact space.
