☞
Note:
After the adjustment the following must be
checked:
a) with disengaged brake (push mode) the vehicle
has to be pushed easily (bowden cable taut).
b) While the brake is engaged the vehicle may not
be moveable at all.
☞
Note:
If the drum brake slips on one or both sides even
though the adjustment is correct the drive has to
be sent in for maintenance.

REPLACING THE BOWDEN CABLE

During replacement take care that the short bowden
cable cover runs from the lower adjustment screw (fig.
3–5/ H) to the right brake arm (fig. 3–5) on right side
use. For left hand operation it has to run from the lower
adjustment screw to the left hand brake arm.
After replacing the bowden cable adjust the drum
brake.
