The Brakes
The drum brakes on your Smart ATV allow you to stop and are a critical safety feature.
Make sure you test them regularly. Take the e-ATV to your Daymak dealer if the brakes
appear to be losing their stopping power or feel looser than they were previously.
The brakes on your e-ATV may require servicing from time to time. The brake pads will
need to be replaced as they wear down, usually after about a year to a year and a half or
so, depending on how the e-ATV is ridden. Also, the brake cables may have to be adjusted
for tension.
You can only service the brakes yourself if you have extensive experience servicing drum
brakes. Please do not attempt to service the drum brakes if you are not absolutely sure
how to do it.
Adjusting the Brake Cable Tension
From time to time, you may need to adjust the brake cable tension, to loosen or tighten
the drum brakes.
On your drum brakes, a small wing nut rides up and down a threaded bolt, moving the
brake cable and tightening or loosening the brake pads.
Just outside the casing, near the drum brake, the brake cable joins the drum brake. A
small wing nut allows you to adjust the tension.
1.
Locate the wing nut on the drum brake.
2. To tighten the brakes, turn the wing nut clockwise.
3.
To loosen the brakes, turn the wing nut counter-clockwise.
4.
Adjust the tension until the drum brakes are tight enough to provide for proper
safety but are loose enough to allow the wheel to move freely when the brake is
not engaged.
Warning
Your brakes are a critical safety feature. Do not excessively loosen the drum brakes. If you
do not keep them sufficiently tight, your drum brakes will fail and your e-ATV will not be
able to stop properly.
