Chapter 3: Setup
4. Run the inner wire of the cable around the pulley, through the bushing in the actuator
bar, and through the lever cable clamp.
5. Pull the inner wire tight enough to remove slack, and tighten the lever cable clamp on
it.
6. Cut off the excess inner wire, leaving a small amount protruding past the clamp.
7. Make a service loop of any excess lever cable, at least 152 mm (6 inches) in diameter.
8. Attach the lever cable housing to the saddle tie. See Figure 3-24.
Adjustment
The brake lever cable needs to be adjusted so there is no excess slack, but so the brakes are
engaged when the lever is not being actuated. The two caster brake cables will be adjusted at
the factory.
Brake Lever Cable
The brake lever cable should be adjusted at the lever cable clamp, shown in the preceding fig-
ure. There should be just enough slack so the actuator bar touches its hard stop.
Caster Cables
These should be adjusted correctly from the factory. If any adjustment is needed, refer to the
preceding figure for the adjustment location. The brake pins should be able to go down as far
as the caster surface allows, without any slack. The jam nuts on the two brake adjustments
should be installed using a threadlocker.
Actuator Bar Hard Stop
After the caster cables are adjusted correctly, ensure that the actuator bar just touches its hard
stop. This will keep the actuator bar in position if you have to adjust the lever cable.
