2.Keep the lower brake rod from turning using a 9/16” wrench on the double nuts.

3.Turn the 3/8F nut at the the end of the spring the proper direction to achieve the correct measurement (2 3/4” - 2 7/8”).

4.Repeat on otherside if necessary.

If the 1/4” gap is not adjusted follow these step:

1.Place the park brake in the off position.

2.Loosen the 3/8F nut holding the yoke and re- move the clevis pin.

3.Turn the yoke clockwise to increase the gap.

4.Reinstall the yoke to the brake lever using the clevis pin and tighten the 3/8F nut to the yoke.

5.With the park brake on check your gap on both sides.

6.If necessary repeat the above steps.

If each side requires a different gap adjustment.

1.Place the park brake on.

2.Loosen the 3/8F nut next to the trunion.
