PARKING BRAKE
Rear Drum Brake:
When the parking brake lever is pulled, the parking brake shoe lever is pulled via the parking brake
wire. This causes the adjuster to push the front shoe, which expands and is pressed against the
brake drum. If the parking brake lever continues to be pulled, the contact point of the parking
brake shoe lever and adjuster then becomes the fulcrum so that the parking brake shoe lever
causes the rear shoe to expand. This results in the brake drum being locked by the front shoe and
rear shoe.
PARKING BRAKE
Rear Disc Brake:
When the parking brake lever is pulled or pedal is depressed, the parking brake shoe lever is
pulled via the parking brake wire. This causes the shoe strut to push the front shoe, which
expands and is pressed against the disc. If the parking brake lever or pedal continues to be pulled
or depressed, the contact point of the parking brake shoe lever and shoe strut then becomes the
fulcrum so that the parking brake shoe lever causes the rear shoe to expand. This results in the
disc being locked by the front shoe and rear shoe.
