Parking Brake Pedal Removal and Installa-
tion
Note the location and orientation of the two torsion
springs (8). Remove the push nut (9) and pin (10) (Figure
27) and remove the parking brake pedal. Some models
may use two push nuts on the pin.
To prevent serious injury or death
resulting from the use of worn park-
ing brake components, to not
attempt to re-new worn components. The parking
brake arm latch is a hardened part. Do not grind or
file it as doing so will cause the part to lose its hard-
ness characteristics. A new part must be used.
Installation is in the reverse order of disassembly. Use a
new push nut (or push nuts).
If required, adjust the kick-off cam (3). See the
Pedal Bumper Adjustment
Loosen bumper lock nut and adjust the bumper by rotat-
ing it (Figure 29). The brake pedal must contact the pedal
bumper when pedal is released and the dimension from
the top of the pedal arm to the setscrew heads in the kick-
off cam should be approximately 1/4" - 3/8” (6 - 9.5 mm).
Tighten the lock nut to 12 - 14 ft. lbs. (16 - 19 Nm).
