Parking Brake Cable Adjustment
Note:
The parking brake cable is factory set (Figure 22). If you think the parking brake
cable needs to be adjusted, you may actually need to replace the parking brake pads.
See below.
Changing the Parking brake Pads
Note:
If your DR POWERWAGON 5.0 rolls on slopes when the parking brake is set,
and you have tried adjusting the parking brake, the parking brake pads may need to be
replaced.
Tools & Supplies Needed:
1/2" wrench or socket
Mat or container for loose parts
Note:
You may want to remove the wheel to provide easier access to the parking brake
area. (See page 21)
1. Find a level area to work. The parking brake should NOT be engaged. Chock the
wheels so the machine cannot move.
2. Locate the parking brake caliper at the right front of the machine (Figure 23).
Remove the two caliper bolts holding the parking brake caliper with a 1/2" wrench,
then carefully remove the caliper.
WARNING!
Before performing any maintenance procedure, stop the
engine and disconnect the spark plug wire.
