Brake Pedal Free Play
Adjustment

Check the brake pedal free play by
pressing against the pedal with two
fingers (using light force) and
measuring the distance the pedal
travels before resistance is felt.

Brake pedal free play 

Å

:

50-55 mm (1.97-2.17 in.)

To adjust the brake pedal free play:

1.   Remove the floor mat and 

service lid from the floor of the
PTV.

2.   If the free play distance needs

adjusting, loosen the lock nut 

å

and turn the adjusting nut 

in

or out until the free play
specification is met. Then tighten
the lock nut in place.

Do not over-tighten the brake
cables. Over-tightening will
increase brake wear and affect
overall performance of PTV.
Premature brake wear can result.
Death or serious personal injury
can result from failing to comply
with the warning labels in this
manual.
