2. Engage brake cable -5-  . Connect plug to switch -3-  . See Fig 1.

3. Remove lock pin on mounting saddle if necessary (only fitted on new parking-brake levers/used to prevent automatic readjustment of the parking-brake cable).

4. Tighten and loosen the parking-brake lever a number of times (due to automatic readjustment of the parking-brake cable). Then check the free play of the parking-brake lever. If there is too much free play, adjust the parking-brake shoes.
