Parking Brake

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