NH TL 100 brakes poor

Would some of you NH gurus know why pedals are near the board and barely work.
Is it a dot4 system or backend oil circuit. Pumping either pedal doesn't do much for recovering pedal pressure

I think these are none above but mechanical if you look under cab at linkage should be adjusters on it. don't know of any cnh with dot 4 as they used lhm oil and if dot 4 was used instead it buggered up whole system, all seals would need to be changed expensive mistake.

Only put LHM in the brake reservoir,your problem will be a leaking o ring around the brake cylinder in the back end I expect.Trumpet housings off to fix,well known problem but im surprised it hasn't gone before now.

Have you checked the fluid level in the reservoir under the bonnet, near the bulkhead? LHM mineral fluid only.....
If it's low or empty, there's obviously a leak. Check below the pedals, around the reservoir and master cylinders and follow the brake pipes to the rear axles. If all is dry, the seals need replacing in the trumpet housings. If the fluid is not low, bleeding might give a temporary fix but it'll be a master cylinder(or both) at fault. Either fluid is passing the seals or air is getting in past them......
