I think I got it with some helpfull info from the factory. This machine has the group 30 brake system. The hydraulic portion of the brake booster/master cyl is powered by a small aux pump on the right side of the engine. The specs state rated pressure of 3500 psi. With engine running I'm getting 1500 psi. There's no adjustment and the lines run directly to the booster so I'm thinking it's not enough pressure to run the booster so I ordered a new pump.

Fact of the week
In Germany, the 9th of November is sometimes called Schicksalstag, the "Day of Fate" because it has been the day for several major historical events, including the horrors of Kristallnacht in 1938 and the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989.
