3.14 Winch Brake Adjustment - Wedge Brake
The winch brake retains the tarp in the retracted position at the top of the front wall during loading,
transport, and the beginning of the unloading cycle. The brake can be adjusted from the top or the
bottom using either pair of jam nuts, whichever side is easiest to access.
1. Retract the tarp completely to the top of the front wall.
2. Turn whichever pair of jam nuts is easiest to reach, to turn the threaded rod to adjust the brake. A
deep socket on a ratchet works well to do this. While turning the jam nut pair, to turn the threaded
rod, it can help to put a finger on the wedge brake piece to make sure that the brake is traveling in
the direction that you want it to if you can’t easily see it. Turn the threaded rod to tighten the brake
against the strap until it takes about 10 lbs [5 kg] of force to move the tarp (it should be possible,
but take some effort to pull the tarp down by hand).
