1 Remove any attachment, raise the boom arms and
engage the boom support pins. Shut off the engine.
2 Remove the seat. Visually check to ensure that both
switches have the same gap to the brake arm shaft
tab.(fig, C5629)If they are not the same, adjust the gaps
so that they are even using the switch mounting nuts.
3 Locate the switch mount bracket under the left side of
the brake pull off assembly. Loosen the two mounting
bolts that hold the switch bracket.
4 Lower the restraint bar.
5 Lift up on the switch assembly until the the switches
are fully depressed, then lower the assembly 1/8” (3mm).
This ensures that the switches do not bottom out and
break during normal operation. Tighten the mounting
bolts until snug. (fig. C5630)
6 Carefully cycle the restraint bar up and down while
observing switch function. Check for a gap between
switches and brake shaft tab when the resrtraint bar is
fully raised.
