Parking Brake Cable: Adjustments

1. Make sure that parking brake is fully released.
2. Place the transmission in neutral. Raise the vehicle on an axle-type hoist. Refer to the PreDelivery manual.
3. Tighten adjusting nut against cable equalizer, causing a rear wheel brake drag.

Loosen adjusting nut until rear brakes are fully released. There should be no brake drag. If brake cables are replaced in any system having a foot operated control assembly, stroke parking brake control with approximately 450N (100 lbs) pedal effort, then release control and repeat this step.

4. Lower vehicle and check operation of parking brake.
