Parking Brake Adjustment

If the unit creeps with the engine shut off and the parking brake engaged, the parking brake will need to be adjusted.

1.Disengage the PTO, stop the engine, engage the parking brake, and remove the key from the ignition.

2.Raise the seat plate to gain access to the parking brake components.

3.Measure the distance from the top of the brake spring rod (C, Figure 37) to the top of the lock nut (D) on both sides of the unit. The measurement should be 1/2” (1,27 cm). If not, adjust the locknut to achieve the measurement of 1/2” (1,27 cm).

4.Measure the distance between the bottom of the brake shaft weldment (G) and the top of the set collar (F). The measurement should be 3/8” (0,95 cm). If not, position the set collar until the measurement equals 3/8” (0,95 cm).

NOTE: If this procedure does not correct the problem see your dealer.
