Adjustment Of Brake - Husqvarna Rider 11 Workshop Manual

3
• Firmly attach the brake's connecting rod in the
hole on the brake lever and assemble the was-
her and spring clip.
• Remove the blocks in front of and behind the
wheels and continue with "Adjusting brake".
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Firmly attach the connecting rod so that the
washer and the spring clip are on the
outside of the brake lever (see diagram).

Adjustment of brake

1
Apply the parking brake and check that the
transmission's brake arm is pulled as far forwards
as possible (see diagram). Adjust this with the
brake wire tensioning screw (see "Checking and
adjusting brake wire").
2
When the parking brake is fully applied, the gap
between the spring and the spring holder
attachment (see diagram) should be 4–8 mm.
3
Adjust the gap by:
• Releasing the parking brake.
• Loosening the connecting rod by removing the
spring clip and the washer.
• Turning the connecting rod in or out of the spring
(see diagram) to adjust the gap.
• Firmly attach the brake's connecting rod in the
hole on the brake lever and assemble the was-
her and spring clip. Make sure that the washer
and spring clip are on the outside of the brake
lever.
• Apply the parking brake and check the gap once
again.
• Repeat the adjustment procedure until the
correct gap is obtained.
Ineffective brake power
As the brake is only used as a parking brake, wear
is negligeable. If the brake power is nevertheless
ineffective, this can be adjusted:
• Release the three bolts (N12) which hold the
brake lining packet.
• Press on the brake lever so that the brake lining
centres itself around the brake drum and tighten
the three bolts with moment (27 Nm).
