Inspect the Parking Brake
A properly functioning parking brake is essential to
safe machine operation. The parking brake is
manually activated. An improperly functioning
parking brake will prevent the operator from
properly securing the machine when not in use.
Perform this procedure on a firm,
level surface.
1 Visually inspect the parking brake cables and
components for damage.
2 Visually inspect the parking brake cables to
ensure both are properly secured and installed
into the brake backing plate.
3 Set the parking brake.
If the brake cables are too tight the
parking brake assembly will be
difficult to apply. If the brake
cables are too loose, the brakes
will not activate when the lever is
set.
4 Attempt to manually push the machine.
Result: The machine should not move.
Result: The machine moves. Proceed to step 5.
5 Release the parking brake.
6 Loosen the set screw at the side of the parking
brake handle.
7 Turn the handle in a clockwise direction just to
the point where it is difficult to apply the parking
brake, then rotate the top of the parking brake
handle counterclockwise one full turn.
8 Tighten the set screw. Do not overtighten.
9 Repeat this procedure beginning with step 3.
