secure the rod end.
6. Install the pin through the end of the yoke and

7. Connect the brake return spring (Figure 2C-7).
Repeat for the remaining parking brake assembly.

switches disconnected, engage the parking brake and
adjust the brake switches as required to close the
switch contacts when the pedal is pressed and locked
and to open the switch contacts when the brake pedal
is unlocked and released (Figure 2C-8).
