Remove the three screws. Remove the ashtray. Remove the rear bracket.

Check that the tab is at an approximate right angle. Check the parking brake cables and the brake clamp if necessary.

Check that the rear wheels can rotate when the parking brake is not applied.

Ensure that the central parking brake cable is always under tension.

Install the rear bracket.
