Danger !
The brake is a safety relevant building component! All work for maintenance/
service or exchange have to be done by qualified and trained personell.
The brake (drum brake) affects the front wheel and is activated via the brake pedal and
bowden cable.
Adjustment of the brakes can be done on the right hand side of the front wheel (view driving
direction).
Readjustment of the brakes
• Fix the adjustment nut of the bowden cable with a wrench.
• Release the counter nut of the bowden cable.
• Press the brake upwards until brake feels resistance.
• Hold the brake in this position.
• Turn the counternut of the bowden cable tightly.
Functional Test of the Brakes
Front wheel—free room of movement. The Ride-on-Sweeper should be able to be pushed
forwards easily if the brakes are unlocked. During this motion the front wheel should move
easily and not block. If the brakes are adjusted too tightly then damage could occurto the
drum brakes.
Functionality of the brake
Drive carefully a few metres at low speed. Press the brake pedal, the Ride-on-Sweeper should
stop. If the functional test does succeed as foreseen, then repeat the adjustment procedure.
Further adjustment possibility:
The Bowden cable cannot be adjusted as described above.
• Release the brake cable fixation and lift the brake lever until it has resistance and then hold
the brake lever in this position.
• Pull the brake cable through downwards and push the brake cable fixation upwards.
• Fasten the brake cable fixation in this position.
• Proceed with the functional tests as described above
