Lubrication

Every 3 months, lubricate your brake lever pivots and brake arm fixing pivots with a light oil. See your Chariot dealer for a recommended oil.

Lubricate brake cables with a thin layer of synthetic grease or a similar lubricant when installed.

Cable Installation

To install a brake cable, note the path of the old cable, loosen the cable anchor bolt and remove the worn cable. Turn the adjusting barrel on the brake caliper clockwise so that the threads on the adjusting barrel are not exposed above the caliper. Grease the new cable and reinstall, feeding it along the same path as the old cable. Make sure that the cable’s leaded end is seated properly in the brake lever body and that the housing is properly seated in the lever. After threading the cable through the cable anchor bolt, follow the directions for brake adjustment in the Inspection and Adjustment sections. Finally, cut the cable so that no more than 2 inches (51 mm) extends beyond the anchor bolt. Crimp a metal cap or place a bit of solder on the end of the cable to prevent fraying.

WARNING

If you are not certain your brakes are working properly, or you if suspect a problem with your brake cables do not use your jogging stroller. Refer to the instructions in the appropriate section of this manual or take your stroller to your Chariot dealer for service.
