Have another person step on the brake pedal

while you verify that the cam lobe shown in
Figure 129 makes the brake switch plunger
click in.

— If the switch does not click, loosen the two

switch mounting screws, push the pedal
all the way down, and move the switch
closer to the lobe until it clicks. Secure the
switch in place at this location.

With the foot pedal released, the switch
plunger should be approximately 3mm
from the lobe.

While the brake pedal is being held down

to lock the brake drum in place, remove the
drum retaining cap screw and flat washer

Use mineral spirits and a rag to clean the

drum, then inspect it.

— If the drum is bell-mouthed, cracked, or

shows deep grooves, replace it. For minor
scoring, the drum can be dressed with
sandpaper or turned on a lathe.
