LINEAR TYPE BRAKES
A Linear brake arm might have a post type brake
block (as for a Cantilever brake) or a block which can
only be adjusted for toe-in and block-to-rim
alignment, in which case brake block-to-rim
clearance is adjusted by changing the brake cable
length at the brake arm or at the brake lever cable
adjuster. Ask your tricycle retailer how to make the
correct adjustment.
To release a Linear brake press the brake arms
together and unclip the cable lead unit (curved
metal tube) from the pivotted metal stirrup. The
brake cable remains attached to the opposite
brake arm. If the cable lead unit and cone
shaped ferrule cannot be unclipped either slacken
the cable at the brake lever (using the cable
adjuster) or release the cable end which is
attached to the brake arm.
NOTE:
Allow sufficient ‘travel’ in the brake lever
and cable to enable the curved cable lead tube
to be unclipped from the stirrup.
To reset the cable lead tube press the brake arms
together and re-clip into the pivotted metal stirrup.
IMPORTANT: Ensure the cone shaped ferrule
is fully seated in the stirrup. Ensure the
protective flexible bellows or accordion-like
cable protector between the brake arm and the
stirrup is correctly located.
