Checking and adjustment of the steering wires

The steering is controlled by means of wires.

These can in time become slack, which implies that the adjustment of the steering becomes altered.

Check and adjust the steering as follows:

1.Dismantle the frame-plate by releasing the screws (two on each side).

2.Check the tension of the steering wires by pushing them together as shown in the dia- gram. It should be possible to push them together so that the distance between them is half as much, without using unnecessary force.

3.If necessary, the wires can be adjusted by tightening the adjuster nuts on each side of the steering collar. Do not tension the wires too much, they should only be tightened against the steering collar.

Support the wire so it does not twist.

If you tension only one side the steering wheel’s centre position may change.

Check the wire tension as set out in point 2 after you have made the adjustment.

Adjusting the parking brake

The parking brake is adjusted as follows:

1.Loosen the locking nuts (1).

2.Tension the cable using the adjuster screw (2) until the play in the cable is taken up.

3.Tighten the locking nuts (1).

4.The parking brake should be checked again after the adjustment has been made.

WARNING!

A poorly adjusted parking brake can result in reduced braking ability.
