1. Insert each of the lower ends of the Y-cable in the holes located on the extending lever tabs (TAB) of each brake
paddle as illustrated in Figure 7.
2. Thread one ¼”-28 jam nut (A) onto both ends of the cable to approximately 1-1/2” from the end using your fingers.
(Note: It may be necessary to use a 7/16” wrench and hold the cable with a pair of pliers above the threaded section
to prevent the cable from spinning while performing this step.)
3. Thread a second ¼”-28 jam nut (A) onto the cable until it is snug with first jam nut and tighten them together using the
two 7/16” wrenches to 50-60 in.-lbs. of torque.
4. At the top of the cable, thread one ¼”-28 jam nut (A) all the way on the upper end of the Y-cable. Thread the yoke
end (B) onto the cable as illustrated in Figure 8. You will adjust the final position of the yoke and jam nut on the next
page.
PADDLE ADJUSTMENT (REQUIRED DURING THE INITIAL INSTALLATION OR IF WHEELS ARE
CHANGED FROM ONE TYPE TO ANOTHER)
1. Loosen the jam nut (A) below the yoke end (B) at the top of the Y-cable using a 7/16” wrench (see Figure 8).
2. Remove the yoke from the brake handle actuator tab using a #2 Phillips head screwdriver and a 7/16” wrench.
3. Loosen the hex head screws that hold the bottom mounting brackets on each side of the frame using two 1/2”
wrenches. Slide the brackets down such that the brake paddles are resting on the wheels (bottom mounting brackets
are shown on page 3, Figure 2).
4. Place an adjustment spacer (E) between each of the wheels and their respective brake paddles as illustrated in
Figure 10.
5. With the brake assembly resting on each of the adjustment spacers, tighten each of the two bottom mounting bracket
screws to secure the brackets in place using the 1/2” wrenches.
6. Remove the adjustment spacers.
