Adjusting the parking brake
- Remove the rear wheels.
- Undo the handbrake lever and push back the disc brake pads of the rear axle until the brake disc can rotate freely.
- Undo the adjustment nuts on the turnbuckle (arrow) until the cables are without pretension.NOTE: To make the turnbuckle accessible, open the cover of the tray behind the parking brake lever and remove the rubber inlay and also the insert.
- With a screwdriver, adjust the adjustment fixture through a threaded wheel bolt hole until the wheel can no longer be turned. Next, turn back the adjustment fixture through 5 notches again (release approx. 3 notches until the wheel can be turned freely, then release another 2 notches). Repeat the procedure on the other wheel.
- Pull up the handbrake lever by 2 teeth and turn the adjustment nut of the turnbuckle until both wheels can be turned manually with difficulty.
- Release the parking brake lever and check whether both wheels can be turned freely.
