Brake Pedal Free Play
Adjustment
Before adjusting brake pedal free
play, pump the brake pedal several
times to self-adjust the brakes.
To adjust the brake pedal free play:
1. Remove the service lid from the
floor of the utility car.
2. Check the brake pedal free play by
pressing against the pedal with
two fingers (using light force) and
measuring the distance the pedal
travels before resistance is felt.
Brake pedal free play:
25-30 mm (0.98-1.18 in.)
3. If the free play distance needs
adjusting, loosen the lock nut and
turn the adjusting nut in or out (in
180° increments only, due to the
cam shape of adjuster), until the
free play specification is met. Then
tighten the lock nut in place.
Do not overtighten the brake
cables. The self adjusters may not
operate properly, reducing braking
performance.
