Adjusting the Parking Brake Spring
1. Locate the two (2) brake springs (A, Figure 32).
2. With the parking brake engaged, measure the
compressed spring length. The spring should be
2-3/8” (6 cm) when compressed.
3. If the spring length does not equal the
measurement, the spring length will need to be
adjusted.
4. Disengage the parking brake.
5. Loosen the set collar (B) and slide it away from
the back of the parking brake bracket (C).
6. Turn the adjustment nut (D) to compress or
release the spring.
7. Engage the parking brake and re-measure the
spring. Continue this process until the compressed
spring length measures 2-3/8” (6 cm).
8. Position the set collar 1/4” (.64 cm) away from the
parking brake bracket and tighten.
If this does not correct the braking problem, see
your authorized dealer.
