To use the brake, squeeze the lever to increase the
pressure on the brake. The brake lever is fitted with

adjuster in or out 1/4 to 1/2 turn until the desired
brake adjustment is attained. Most adjustments
are complete at this step. If brake still needs
further adjustment, proceed to step 2.

Key wrench to loosen the brake anchor cable for
additional adjustment.
