29. Make sure parking brake lever is down all the way and adjustment screw is loosened. You will
want the adjustment screw to be able to mostly tighten the cable while still having some
adjustability to loosen the cable. Make sure adjustment mechanism can move freely on parking
brake attachment. Route parking brake cable thru the guides in the tongue and the frame,
keeping the cables as high as possible. End of cable will go thru the loop on the brake actuator
arm on the brake drum, then it will loop back on itself. Pull the cable as tight as possible and
secure with wire rope clips. The U-bolt side will go on the dead end of the clip and the saddle will
go on the live end. Fig 31, Green line indicates where the brake cable will lay. Fig 32 shows
correct orientation of the u-bolt and saddle. It is easiest to secure one side then remove slack
and secure the opposite side. Use adjuster to take excess slack out of brake line and lock up the
brakes when the handle is about 3-4 clicks from the last slot
