Adjust the tension on the cable
pulling or pushing the cable jacket and holding
that position.
Note:
Pull the cable jacket toward the engine
to increase tension (also increases brake clamp
load); push the cable jacket away from the
engine to decrease tension (also decreases
brake clamp load).
Important:
Adjust the cable jacket in small
increments to avoid over tensioning. Over
tensioning may cause the machine to not
roll free even when the parking brake is
disengaged. Correct tensioning allows the
machine to roll free when the parking brake
is disengaged and to hold position when the
parking brake is engaged.
4.
Turn the adjustment nut clockwise to tighten the
cable adjustment.
Note:
Tighten the nut firmly with a socket or
wrench.
