Adjustment of Brake
Danger Danger
If the brake wire is cut, the machine will be
unable to stop. This would be extremely
dangerous.
If the brake wire is cracked or damaged,
replace it with a new one immediately.
If the brake is not sufficiently effective, adjust
the brake wire.
Important
Adjust to reduce the play in the brake lever as
much as possible so that the brake does not
drag when the lever is released.
Adjust the brake by tightening the brake wire
adjustment bolt.
If there is too much play in the brake lever,
the braking power is reduced and the
brake pedal feel is light.
If there is too little play in the brake lever,
the braking power is increased and the
brake pedal feel is heavy.

It would be extremely dangerous and may
result in an unexpected accident if the left and
