Continue to adjust the brake until the pads lightly grip the rotor.
De-adjust the brake by 1/2 a turn of the spanner, this should give
a nominal 1mm pad to rotor clearance.
Ensure the rotor is free to turn.

Charge the air system and apply the brakes 5 times to settle the
pads and allow the automatic adjuster to set the correct running
clearance.
