1. Anchor 3. Yoke
2. Cable Shaft 4. Swing Speed Reducer
c. Adjust the pedal end of the swing brake cable by increasing the thread length as
indicated in Figure 1 until the swing brake pedal is operating in the 4 to 5 click range.
After the adjustments are made, sufficient thread must remain so that all the threads of
the jam nuts are engaged.
NOTE: Any adjustment required on the swing speed reducer end of the swing
brake cable will require that the swing brake cable is disconnected from the
swing brake pedal.
d. Set the swing brake and begin to attempt to swing the machine against the swing
brake. You should exercise caution in doing this until you know that the swing brake is
in good working order and will hold against the swing pressure. Once you have
verified that the swing brake is holding, the engine RPM should be brought up to full
governed speed slowly.
e. If the swing brake fails to prevent the boom from rotating or if the swing brake pedal
continues to operate in the 6 or 7 click range, the swing brake cable and/or the brake
discs may need to be replaced.
