balance bar aDjustMent
Fixed position
If a remote adjuster will not be used remove the set screw in the right end of the balance
bar and snug the balance bar locking nut up against the right clevis pivot.
Only one locking nut is required.
Remote Cable Adjuster
The right end of the balance bar has been drilled to accept the remote adjuster cable
directly. No coupler is required. Slip the end of the cable into the end of the balance bar
and tighten the setscrew.
Right Angle Adjuster
To solve cable routing problems use right angle adjuster part number 72-561. This is a
small protected bevel gear drive unit that will allow the cable to approach the balance
bar at a 90 degree angle.
ports
Inlet:
–6AN, crush washer seal. Connection fittings (-6AN crush washer to -4AN male taper)
are sold spearately, avilable from Tilton (P/N 77-015). Comparable Goodridge fittings are
acceptable as well.
Outlet:
–3AN, crush washer or tapered seat seal.
cutoff port travel
As delivered, the Tilton 77 Series master cylinder has been blueprinted for a cutoff port
travel distance within the range of .030" to .050". This can by altered by changing the
thickness of the sealing ring located between the master cylinder body and the end cap
(visible from outside). Increasing the thickness of this seal increases the cutoff port travel
an equal amount. Reducing the thickness reduces it by an equal amount. Seal kits of
varying thicknesses are available from Tilton. It is recommended not to reuse the shims
since work hardening of the shim material can prevent proper sealing in the future.
