A DJUSTING THE B RAKE T ENSION
Use the following instructions to adjust the brake tension.
1
Locate the eyebolt brake tension adjuster.
2 With the brake release pedal in the up position, turn the 1/4-20 nut on the eyebolt
clockwise to increase the spring tension until the drum can no longer be turned
by hand.
3 Verify the brake releases when the pedal is fully depressed.
Note: The eyebolt can be adjusted until it touches the lever on the release shaft
mechanism. If the eyebolt makes contact when the brake release pedal is fully
depressed, then the eyebolt has been adjusted too far. Back off the eyebolt nut
until it no longer contacts the lever.
