Common Faults and Troubleshooting
Service and Maintenance for the Rear Brake
Adjustment of the rear drum brake:
* First, use the main stand to prop up the rear wheel of the vehicle
and then adjust the free travel of the rear brake by screwing in or
out the nut on the end of the rear brake cable.
* Apply the rear brake several times. Each time the brake should
release freely without binding or sticking. Rotate the rear wheel
assembly to check whether the wheel rotates freely.
* Always keep the cables and fittings clean and free of debris.
Keeping the cables lubricated will improve service life.
When applying the rear brake, ensure the wheel stops
spinning within the recommend free travel. On rear brake
cable equipped models, turn the brake adjustment fitting at
the bottom of the cable clockwise to tighten the cable and
reduce free travel. If you run out of adjustment, please
take your vehicle in to an authorized service center for
servicing.
Use the support to prop up the vehicle, and adjust the free
travel of the rear brake between ¼- ½ inch.
