Parking Brake Release Linkage and Kick-Off Cam, Removal and Installation
Disconnect the parking brake release linkage as described above. Loosen the two set screws (5) from
the cam (6) and remove the cam pivot (7), cam and spacer (8) (Ref Fig. F30).
Inspect the bushings (9, 10) and spacer. If they are worn, replace them with new ones.
Assembly is in the reverse order of disassembly.
With the parking brake engaged and fully latched, there must be no gap between the top of the cam and
the latch arm. To adjust the kick-off cam (6), engage the parking brake and loosen the two cam
setscrews (5) and rotate the cam until it contacts the latch arm. Tighten the setscrews to 45 - 55 in/Ibs (5
- 6 N·m) torque. Always use new epoxy patch setscrews when replacing the kick-off cam.
