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, ete.
The many advantages of
this type of braking system
have {on; been recognized.
They are brought to you in
the new Fons through a
series of mechanical im
provements embodying
much that is new in design
and manafacture. 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.

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 makes the Ford
brakes upusually silent in
operation.
Another feature of the
Ford brakes is the ease of
adjustment.
The fourwheel brakes
are adjusted by turning a
screw conveniently 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,”
