Regular Cable (E100/350)

  1. Release parking brake pedal. Grip automatic adjuster to prevent it from spinning. Tighten equalizer nut 6 full turns past its original position.
  2. Depress pedal and check tension. Release pedal and check rear wheel drag. If drag is noted on E250/350 models, remove drums and check for clearance between parking brake lever and cam plate. Clearance should be .015" (.38 mm) with brakes fully released. Adjust as necessary.
