Parking Brake - Fwd Models

With engine running, pump brakes 3 times before adjusting parking brake. Place transmission in "N" and raise vehicle enough to rotate wheels. Place parking brake lever in 12th notch position. Tighten adjusting nut until 1" (25 mm) of threaded rod is exposed beyond nut. Return handle to "OFF" position and rotate rear wheels. A slight drag is desirable. If no drag is present or the lever travels too far, repeat the above procedure.
