Manual Brake (Free Stroke) Adjustment
DISENGAGING THE PAWL!
You must disengage a pull pawl or remove a conventional pawl before rotating the
manual adjusting nut, or you will damage the pawl teeth. A damaged pawl will not allow the
slack adjuster to automatically adjust brake clearance. Replace damaged pawls before putting
the vehicle in service.
1. Disengage a pull pawl or remove a conventional pawl. The pull pawl can be disengaged by
prying up on it with a screwdriver at least 1/32".
2. Turn the adjusting nut in the counterclockwise direction until the linings touch the drum, and
then turn the adjusting nut in the opposite direction (clockwise) 1/2 turn.
3. Repeat the free stroke measurement procedure. If it is necessary to adjust the stroke, turn
the adjusting nut 1/8 turn clockwise to lengthen the stroke, or 1/8 turn counterclockwise to
shorten the stroke. Repeat these steps until the free stroke length is correct.
4. Release the pull pawl or reinstall a conventional pawl.
