1.Stop engine and remove key. Release park brake and measure the length of the spring. The distance between the washer on each end of the spring should be 2-7/8". FIG - 5

2.If adjustment is needed, loosen the nut below the spring. Then rotate nut to desired position so the proper distance between the washers is obtained. Check other side for proper ad- justment.

3.Engage the brake lever and measure the dis- tance between the trunnion pin and the collar welded to the brake rod. Distance should be 3/16" to 1/4". FIG - 5

4.If adjustment is needed, loosen the lock nut directly below the yoke. Using a wrench, ro- tate the rod by turning the double nuts using the nuts below the yoke and the nut you just loosened, to obtain the 3/16" to 1/4" distance. Tighten nut against yoke and check other side for proper adjustment.
