BRAKE BAND ADJUSTMENTS:
Located on each gearbox.
Brake handle should be placed in both "off" and "on" positions several times to determine
whether each brake band is functioning correctly.
The brake bands should fit tightly around brake drums with the brake handle "on" or pulled
upward.
If band is too loose, tighten the nut on the threaded end of eyebolt extending from brake
band.
If band does not fully release drum, loosen nut until achieving desired results. Repeat
procedure, if necessary.
