GAP ADJUSTMENT ON THE FRONT AXLE
Lift the front with a hydraulic jack to get the wheels of the ground.
Then loosen the nut and tighten the bolt fully and turn the bolt ½ to loosen again in order
to roll the center pivot metal freely and tighten the nut again.
While the wheels arte still off the ground, move the axle on the center pivot as a final
check that the gap is set correctly on the top of the pivot metal.
■ Adjustment Method
Loosen the locknuts at each end and turn the rod to adjust the brake.
Turning it anticlockwise increases the free play, clockwise decreases it.
Tighten the locknuts.
Check that the free play is correct and the same on both pedals to ensure even braking.
CAUTION
Uneven adjustment of the left and right pedal will result in one sided braking when the pedals are connected
and can cause serious accidents, especially at high speeds.
Double check to ensure free play is the same on both pedals.
ADJUSTING THE BRAKES
Use of the brakes will change the pedal free play
and the balance between the right and left pedal.
The correct pedal free play is 1.18 ~ 1.57in.
