10.3 PARKING BRAKE ADJUSTMENT ____________________________________________
Check the parking brake each week. Check the brake cables, the cable
linkage and pivots to make sure the brakes operate correctly. Replace
worn or damaged components immediately.
To test the operation of the parking brake -
1. Park the vehicle near the bottom of a hill with a 16.7° (30%) slope.
The front of the vehicle must be toward the bottom of the hill.
Engage the parking brake, put the transmission in Neutral and stop
the engine.
The vehicle must not move with the parking brake engaged. If the vehicle does move, start the engine, drive the
vehicle to the bottom of the hill and adjust the parking brake.
2. With the parking brake disengaged, rotate the adjustment knob to the right side 90 degrees. Engage and
disengage the parking brake. Repeat this step until a “snap over center” action is reached when you engage the
parking brake.
3. Repeat the test on the hill.
WARNING
Do not disengage the parking brake with the engine stopped.
NOTICE
Over adjustment of the parking brake will cause hard lever action, but will not increase the brake performance.
