Adjustment of Brake
Caution
Make sure that the brake wire is not cracked
or damaged.
Caution
If the brake is not sufficiently effective, adjust
the brake wire.
Caution
Perform the adjustment with the engine
stopped.
Adjust the brake by tightening the brake wire
adjustment bolt and the spring rod.
Adjustment of Adjustment Bolt
When the brake wire is stretched, the play of
the brake pedal may become large, the
braking effectiveness may become worse and
the brake pedal may lock.
Important
Adjust the play of the brake lever so that it is
as small as possible and the brakes do not
drag when the lever is released.
Adjust the brake wire adjustment bolts to
adjust the pull length for the brake lever.
If the brake lever play is too large, the
braking power will be decreased and the
brake pedal will be soft.
If the brake lever play is too small, the
braking power will be increased and the
brake pedal will be hard.

Adjustment of Spring Rod
If the spring becomes shorter from depressing
the brake pedal, the brakes may become
insufficiently effective.
Adjust the spring rod nut to adjust the braking
power and operating force of the brake pedal.
If the brake lever play is too large, the
braking power will be weak and the brake
pedal will be soft.
If the brake lever play is too small, the
braking power will be excessive and the
brake pedal will be hard.

Break-In of Brakes
If the brake shoes or brake pads are worn,
replace them with new ones.
Immediately after replacement, drive to break
in the brakes if the effectiveness of the brakes
is low.
While driving, lightly operate the brakes to
break in the contact areas.
