Brake Maintenance

Adjusting the Service/Parking
Brake
If the service/parking brake slips when operated, an
adjustment is required.
1. Engage the service brake, push in on the parking brake
knob and allow the service brake to rest on the parking
brake pin (Figure 30)
2. Using a spring scale, press rearward on the service
brake lever (Figure 31). The parking brake should
release when a force of 13.5 to 18 kg (30 to 40 lbs) is
attained. If the parking brake releases before 13.5 to 18
kg (30 to 40 lbs) of force is attained, an adjustment to
the brake cable is required. Proceed to step 3.
