Adjusting the parking brake
- Remove the rear wheels.
- Undo the parking brake lever and push back the disc brake pads of the rear axle until the brake disc can rotate freely.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.
- Undo the adjustment nuts -arrow- on the turnbuckle until the cables are without pretension.
- With a screwdriver (Fig 2), turn the adjustment device through a wheel bolt threaded hole so that the brake disc can no longer be moved.
- Turn back the adjustment fixture through 5 notches again (release approx. 3 notches until the brake disc can be moved freely, then release another 2 notches).
- Repeat the procedure on the other wheel.
- Pull up the parking brake lever by 2 teeth and adjust 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.
