Parking Brake
Adjustment
1. Disengage the PTO, stop the engine, block the front
wheels, remove the ignition key, and engage the
parking brake. For easier access to the brake adjust-
ment linkage, the rear wheels may be removed.
2. Check the brake spring (A, Figure 15) length (both
wheels). With the brake engaged the compressed
spring length should be 2” (5 cm). If not, adjust the
locknut (C) to achieve the compressed spring length
of 2” (5 cm).
3. After achieving the correct spring compression, check
the set collar gap (B). With the parking brake
engaged, the set collar gap should be 3/16" (5 mm).
If not, loosen the set collar screw and move the collar
to the correct position.
