DINOR SERVIOE AND ADJUSTMENTS
Clutch
To adjust the clutch pedal (Fig. 3). Depress it by hand until all free
movement is taken out ; release the locknut on the pedal rod and tighten
the adjusting nut until there is 5½ inches working movement ; that is
when the front edge of the pedal is approximately 5½ inches from the relay
lever boss on the main frame, and all free movement is taken up. 'l'ighten
the .locknut on the clutch pedal rod, and adjust the hand control lever
accordingly.
If the clutch slips, make the above adjustments; if not remedied,
consult a David Brown dealer.
Brakes
The brake gear is not compensated and each side requires individual
adjustment. This is checked by driving the tractor on a flat road and
applying the foot brake, when it will immediately be noticed whether the
tractor has a tendency to slew to one side or fails to stop in a reasonable
distance. The brake on the side to which it slews will be aeting harder
than that on the other side and therefore adjustment is required either
by slackening off the more active brake or tightening up the opposite brake.
AdjuElt as follows:-
J ack up both rear wheels and depress the foot pedal until the pawl
engages with the ratchet, leaving approximately one:-and-a-half inches free
travel. Release the locknuts at the brake end of the rearmost rods and
regulate the adjusting nuts until the resistance to each wheel is equal.
Check by turning each wheel by hand. Tighten the locknuts, release the
foot brake and spin the wheels to check for freedom.
When the brake linings have seen considerable service and require
relining, consult a David Brown dealer.
