Hand Brake Maintenance
Refer to Figure 105
Periodically adjust the setting of the handle knob
that the handle snaps firmly into place as brakes are
engaged.
If the handle runs out of adjustment, or is close to run-
ning out of adjustment, loosen jam nuts and re-position
the brake-end barrel
on the cable casing.
Further adjustment is available at the barrel
handle end of the cable casing.
If all three adjustments are at or near their limits, service
the brakes.
