To Check Brake Disengagement
1. Manually rotate the Drive Pulley in a slow counter-
clockwise direction until the Brake starts to release
and the Transmission begins to turn.
2. Position the "Reference Cam Arrow" midway be-
tween the "Min Pulley Hub Reference" and the "Max
Pulley Hub Reference" markers located on the
Pulley.
If the position of the Cam Arrow to the Pulley Hub is not
within these parameters adjustment is required.

To Adjust Brake Disengagement

1. If the position of the Cam Reference Arrow is less
than the Min Pulley Hub reference mark, remove
the standard (.062 thickness) Thrust Washer and
replace it with a thinner (.032 thickness) Thrust
Washer. Recheck disengagement 3 times to verify
proper adjustment.
2. If the position of the Cam Reference Arrow is more
than the Max Pulley Hub reference mark, add a
(.032 thickness) Thrust Washer to the standard
Thrust Washer. Recheck disengagement 3 times to
verify proper adjustment.
