Releasing Spring Manually
WARNING:
Do not attempt to disassemble the parking brake
chamber under any circumstances. The high spring load may
cause serious injury.
WARNING:
Block the wheels to help prevent the vehicle from
moving.
WARNING:
Unexpected and possibly sudden vehicle movement
may occur if these precautions are not taken.
If you release hydraulic pressure from the spring brake chamber the
power spring applies the brake and, unless hydraulic pressure can be
re-established, you must release the spring brake as follows in order to
move your vehicle.
Loosen the jam nut (A) and un-thread the adjustment rod (B) from the
chamber to reduce tension on the cable (C). Continue to un-thread the
adjustment rod all the way and remove it from the chamber. The nut and
shaft are metric.
