PARKING BRAKE ADJUSTMENT
1. Disengage the PTO, stop the engine, block the
front wheels, remove the ignition key, and engage
the parking brake.
2. Jack up the rear of the machine and secure with
jackstands. Remove both drive tires.
3. With the parking brake engaged, measure the
compressed spring length (see Figure 36). The
spring should be 2-1/8” - 2-1/4” (5,4 - 5,7 cm) long
when compressed.
4. If the spring does not measure 2-1/8” - 2-1/4” (5,4
- 5,7 cm), release the parking brake and turn the
adjustment nut (B) to adjust the spring length
5. Engage the parking brake and remeasure the
spring length. Continue to adjust the nut as
required.
6. With the parking brake engaged, adjust the set
collar position until 3/16” (4,7 mm) gap is
measured between the set collar and brake link.
7. Reinstall the drive tires. Torque the lug bolts to
85-95 ft/lbs. (115-129 Nm). Remove the
jackstands from under the machine.
CAUTION
Do not adjust the spring to be shorter than
2-1/8” (5,4 cm) when compressed. This may
damage the brake caliper.
