Auxiliary Brake Adjustment (Hydraulic)
Use the following procedure to inspect the hydraulic auxiliary
(foot) brake system and adjust or bleed if necessary.
1. First check foot brake effectiveness by applying a 50
lb. (approx.) downward force on the pedal. The top of
the pedal should be at least 1, (25.4mm) above the
surface of the footrest (
see Ill. 1
).
If less than one inch, two things must be examined:
Free Play:
Free play of the brake pedal should be 1/8 - 1/4 inch
(3.2 - 6.35 mm).
Free play can be adjusted on some models by altering the
length of the pushrod, which is connected to the brake pe-
dal by a clevis. Other models are non-adjustable type (right).
If free play is excessive on a non-adjustable brake, inspect
pedal, linkage, and master cylinder for wear or damage and
replace any worn parts.
To adjust the linkage:
S
Remove right hand drive cover to gain access to brake
pushrod.
S
Hold clevis (A) and loosen clevis adjuster lock nut (B).
S
To
increase
free play, shorten the pushrod (C).
S
To
decrease
free play, lengthen the pushrod (C).
S
Hold clevis and tighten lock nut (B) securely.
S
Reinstall drive cover.
Bleeding:
If free play is correct and brake pedal travel is still exces-
sive, air may be trapped somewhere in the system. Bleed
the hydraulic auxiliary brake system in a conventional
manner, following the procedure outlined in the Brake
chapter.
