Compensator Assembly
The compensator assembly contains a spring, which is
compressed until the stop tube within the spring is
engaged and the linkage becomes solid (Figure 3). The
brake compensator assembly applies a spring load to the
parking brake system and insures that the parking brake
remains under tension whenever it is engaged.
