4. Use a torque wrench and a 7-mm 8-point socket or Club Car brake adjustment tool (CCI P/N 1013582)
to turn the brake adjustment bolt (5) on each brake clockwise until it is tightened to 15 ft-lb (20.3 N·m)
and continue clockwise rotation to the point at which torque is released. Stop tightening the bolt as soon
as the torque releases, or the brake will not be properly adjusted. See following NOTE.
NOTE: If a wheel can still be turned by hand after step 4, inspect the brake clusters and clean and/or
replace all parts that do not work properly.
5. Four-wheel brake vehicles only: Repeat procedure at front brake clusters.
