FOOT BRAKE ADJUSTMENT
Before the adjustment of the foot brake the parking brake lever
must be in the unbraked position and between the nut (1) and
pin (2) in the disc brake lever (3) there must be some play. If
you find zero play, loosen the nut (1) slightly. Lift both the rear
wheels and instruct your assistant to turn one of them by hand.
At the same time tighten the adjustment nut (4) until the wheel
cannot be turned. Stop tightening. Then, loosed the adjustment
nut by 5/6 of a turn (5 tabs of the nut) and check the turning of
the wheel.
After this basic adjustment check the operation of the foot
brakes to see whether the braking effect of both the wheels is
the same. If not, loosen the adjustment nut (4) by the required
value on the side where the braking effect is higher.
PARKING BRAKE ADJUSTMENT
The adjustment of the parking brake follows after the adjust-
ment of the foot brake. The parking brake lever must be in the
unbraked position. Perform the adjustment in such a way that
the self-locking nut (1) of the parking brake draw-bar can touch
the pin (2) in the disc brake lever (3).
After this basic adjustment check the operation of the parking
brake to see whether the braking effect of both the wheels is
the same. If not, loosen the adjustment nut (1) by the required
value on the side where the braking effect is higher.
