BRAKE ADJUSTMENT (CONTINUED)
3. If the brake handles are fully adjusted and
more adjustment is required refer to fig. 12.
Whereby screw C is unlocked and nut D is
unscrewed
anti-clockwise to tighten the cable further or
clockwise to loosen the cable.
4. Re-tighten the locking screw C (see fig. 12)
and then adjust brakes via handle notes 2 & 3.
5. After adjustment, check the park brakes by
pushing down on the brake handles,
ensuring that both brakes lock in the 'park'
position.
6. With the 'park' brakes OFF lift the two
'braked' wheels off the ground and spin to
ensure they turn freely. If either of the braked
wheels rub onto the brake arm (see fig. 12),
please check for obstructions and repeat the
brake adjustment procedure above.
7. It is important that you check brake
adjustments on a regular basis to take into
account wear and tear. However brake
adjustment must be checked at least once a
month and definitely prior to a change of
user.
