BRAKE-LOCK SYSTEM
BRAKE-LOCK OPERATION
The brake-lock arm turns through the brake-lock cable as soon as pulling the brake-lock lever. The turning
movement is converted to axial movement by the brake-lock adjuster connected to the body with the thread A.
The axial movement transmits automatically from sleeve piston to adjust-bolt. The adjust-bolt presses brake
pad to brake disk through the adjust-nut/caliper piston. In this bout, the adjust-bolt and adjust-nut move
together with the relation as shown in the illustration.
When releasing the brake-lock lever, each parts return to home position, the caliper piston will be returned
by an elasticity transform of piston seal, the adjust-bolt will be returned by the adjust-bolt spring, the brake-
lock adjuster will be returned by the return-spring.
