13.9.2 Brake caliper. Checking and service
Caliper parts:
1. Bolts that adjust the position of the caliper (provide
parallelism of brake pads and the brake disc).
2. Fastening bolts of a caliper.
3.
Brake cable fixing bolt.
4.
Brake cable stop.
5. Bolt that adjusts the distance between the pads.
6.
Locknut of the adjusting bolt.
Adjusting the brake caliper:
Fully loosen the tension of the brake cable on the lever,
as described in paragraph 13.9.1. Ensure ease of pushing
the lever and the parking brake cable and ease of returning
them to the starting position.
1. If the movement of the lever is complicated,
lubricate or replace the cable.
2.
If the parking brake lever is in the starting position,
and the cable is slack — adjust the tension of the
cable on the parking brake caliper. To do this,
loosen the bolt
(3)
and pull the cable to remove
its slackness. Do not create tension in the cable.
Tighten the bolt
(3)
and check the operation of the
parking brake lever.
3. Turn the bolt
(1)
to adjust the position of the caliper
to the brake disc. The fixed brake pad should be
parallel to the brake disc. Adjust minimum possible
distance between the fixed brake pad and the brake
disc. The brake pad is allowed to graze on the brake
disk if it is not obstructing the disk’s rotation.
Loosen the locknut
(6)
. Tighten the bolt
(5)
until the
moment of touching of the movable brake pads to the brake
disc. Holding the bolt
(5)
, tighten the locknut
(6)
. Check the
rotation of the brake disk. The brake pads are allowed to
graze on the brake disk if they are not obstructing the disk’s
rotation.
4.
Check the movement of the parking brake lever.
If necessary, adjust the tension of the cable as
described in paragraph 13.9.1.
5.
Check the condition of the brake pads. Limit the
working thickness of the brake pads’ material to
0,004 in (1 mm).

(1)
counterclockwise. Pull the rope so
that the throttle has a free running within 0,2–0,3 in
(5–7 mm)
.
To loosen the throttle cable, loosen the locknut
(2)
and
rotate the adjusting screw
(1)
clockwise. Loosen the cable.
