TEST PROCEDURE OF BRAKE CABLE
ADJUSTMENT
2 - 3 teeth
1. Check if the towing eye rod of the overrun brake
mechanism is in the outmost position.
2. Check if the adjustable towbar (= option) is in the
actual towing position.
3. Apply the hand brake lever.
4. Push the compressor a few centimeters backwards
so that the brake lever is automatically pulled
further up.
5. Check the catch lock in combination with the
toothed sector. When the brake is adjusted, 2-3
teeth is the point that can feel the force of braking
and vertical position is the point that the brake is
completely locked.
BRAKE CABLE ADJUSTMENT
1. With the towing eye pulled out in the outmost
position and the hand brake lever in the downward
position (see Figure), loosen the lock nuts (2).
Turn adjusting nuts (3) clockwise until there is no
slack in the brake mechanism. The equalizer (5)
must remain perpendicular to main brake cable
(4).
2. Apply the hand brake lever several times and
repeat the adjustment. Tighten the nuts with their
lock nuts (2). Remove the jack and the blocks.
3. Road test the compressor and brake several times.
Check brake shoe and brake cable adjustment and
if necessary adjust.
