Jacobsen Groom Master II Parts & Maintenance Manual

3 ADJUSTMENTS
GB-10
3.6 PARKING / SERVICE BRAKE ________________________________________________
Inspect brakes pads:
whenever wheels are removed,
if tractor creeps on hills with parking brake applied,
there is a noticeable increase in stopping distance.
To adjust brake cables:
1. Raise tractor and support the unit using jack stands
or blocks so that all three wheels are slightly raised
off the ground.
2. Back off nut (G).
3. With the brake pedal all the way up (disengaged)
turn in adjusting nut (H) and spin wheels slowly by
hand until you feel brakes engage and wheels begin
to bind.
4. Back off adjuster nut (H) slightly until wheels again
turn freely.
5. Tighten nut (G) to lock adjustment in place.
6. Repeat for second cable.
Before returning unit to operation, drive tractor in a flat,
open area and check operation of brakes to make sure
they are operating correctly. Check parking brake to
make sure it engages properly and prevents the tractor
from rolling downhill.
