PARKING BRAKE CABLE FREEPLAY
ADJUSTMENT
1. Inspect and perform any needed service on the brake pads before adjusting
parking brake cable freeplay.
2. Make sure the parking brake is NOT set (the lever should be in the DOWN
position).

caliper bracket. Freeplay should be 1/16" - 1/8" (1.5-3 mm).

decrease freeplay. Turn the adjuster nut inward to increase freeplay.
