ADJUSTING THE BRAKE
The

See Illust. 23.
It may
be possible
to push
the
pedal
all the
way
down

as long
as the brake
is engaged
when
the
pedal
arm
is
at least
3/4-inch
above
the
pedal
stop.
To adjust
the
brake,
loosen
the
jam
nut
"B"
and
turn
the brake
lever
adjusting
screw
"G"
(1IIust. 23A) in or out as required
to get this
measurement.
The
brake
must
not engage
before
the
pedal
arm
is within
the
maximum
distance
of 1-5/16-inches
above
the pedal
stop.

Note:

If the

in the
"N"
position
or,
if the speed
control
linkage
has
been
disassembled
or

for
any reason,
the following
adjustment
must
be made.
Block
the

so the
left
rear
wheel
is
off the ground.
Start
the engine
at half
throttle
or faster.
Move
the
speed
control
lever
to the forward
position.
The

wheel
should
rotate
in the
forward
direction.
Depress
the brake
pedal
all
the
way
down
and release.
The
speed
control
lever
should
return
to the
"N't
position
and the
rear
wheel
stop turning.
If the

tion,
