Check that the brake has 170 N (38 lbs) of holding force measured at the
cassette holder; if not, open the side covers of the carriage and tighten the
nyloc nuts (3).
If the brake does not release properly, open the nuts (1) and adjust the
space (4) with the screws (2). The space should be about 0.1 to 0.4 mm.
CAUTION!
Make only minor adjustments of the nyloc nuts - measured by the flats of
the nuts.
