Safety & Operating Instructions

Note:

The caliper contains four

small parts: the brake pad, the
backing plate, and two small
actuator pins (Figure 19). As you
let the caliper hang from its
attaching hardware, keep track of
these parts as they could fall out.
Clean away any debris from these
parts and the inside of the caliper.

3. Pull the brake disc off the keyed

shaft, being careful not to lose
the shaft key.

4. Remove the old brake pad from

behind the disc and replace it
with a new brake pad, then
reinstall the brake disc.

5. Replace the caliper housing and its parts: the

two actuator pins and the backing plate.
Make sure the brake arm assembly is in the
upright position and the recessed cutout on
the caliper is facing up with the plate to the
rear. Reinstall the two caliper bolts and be
careful not to over tighten them.

6. Test the brake: With the machine on a level

surface, set the parking brake, and put the
machine in free wheel mode. If the brake
does not engage or hold, tighten the brake
adjustment 1/4 turn with a 1/2" wrench.
See “Adjusting the Parking Brake” on page
24.

Note: Check the parking brake periodically
and adjust accordingly.
