REPAIR
Repairs to the parking brake are limited to changing
worn brake linings and renewing worn or damaged
parts. Refer to Figure 5C-1.
ADJUSTMENT (See Figure 5C-2)
1. Place brake lever in the disengaged position and
turn knob in a clockwise direction, apply and re-
lease brake lever every quarter turn until a defi-
nite “snap over center” action is achieved.
2. Over adjustment causes “hard” lever action, but
does not increase brake efficiency. Turn knob coun-
terclockwise until a smooth but firm action is
obtained.
