6. Remove the casters from the caster horns by pulling the axle bolt out of the caster horn.
7. Using a 7/16” socket, remove the three screws (A) holding the brake pan on the bottom side of the base.
8. Using a 7/16” socket with an extension, remove the two remaining screws (B) holding the brake pan on
the base.
9. Using a screwdriver, pry off the retaining lock rings (C) holding the brake pivot arms to the brake link.
10. Lower the brake pan and ring assembly off the base, being careful not to damage the steer cable (if the
head end pan is being removed).
11. Note: This step is necessary only if the brake ring assembly at the head end of the bed is being removed.
Using a 9/16” socket wrench, remove the steer pedal. Using two 10 mm open end wrenches, remove the
two jam nuts holding the steer cable to the cable retainer. Using a 1/4” nut driver and needle–nose vise grips,
loosen and remove the cable retainer. Remove the two cables at the brake sensor switch. (Note the two
terminals being used so the cables will be reattached properly.)
12. Reverse the above steps to reattach the brake pan and ring assembly. If the head end pan was removed,
adjustment of the steer cable will be necessary (see page 75).
NOTE
For proper re–assembly of the brake ring and pan assembly, reattach all fasteners before securing the pivot
arms in place.
To properly secure the pivot arms, grasp both arms together and move them to the right. This will put the
cam into the proper position. Carefully install the pivot arm on the right first, then install the left pivot arm.
