parking brake shaft (C) to the top of the adjustment nut
(D). The measurement should equal 3/8" - 1/2" (0,95 cm
- 1,27 cm). If not, position the adjustment nut until the
measurement equals 3/8" - 1/2" (0,95 cm - 1,27 cm).
4. Measure the distance (E) between the bottom of the
lower parking brake shaft (F) and the top edges of the set
collars (G). The measurement should be 3/16" (.48 cm). If
not, position the set collars until the measurement equals
3/16" (.48 cm).
Note: If this does not correct your braking problem, see your
