Park the machine on a dry, level surface. Block the tires securely to prevent movement of the machine when the parking brake is released.
Start the engine. Allow the hydraulic oil to reach normal operating pressure.
Push the parking brake control knob inward to release the parking brake.
Remove cotter pin (4) and pin (5) from actuator shaft (2).
Use the access hole on the frame plate to insert a 0.5 mm (.02 inch) feeler gauge between parking brake shoe lining (6) and brake drum (8). Rotate star wheel (7) until there is a snug fit between the brake shoe lining, the feeler gauge, and the brake drum.
The parking brake control knob should be in the disengaged position. The actuator shaft should be extended. Loosen locknut (3). Turn rod end assembly (2) until the length is equal to measurement (A).
Manually rotate and hold lever (12) toward parking brake actuator assembly (1) to take up slack between camshaft (10) and brake shoe lining (6). Rotate actuator shaft (2) relative to rod end (11) to install pin (5). Tighten locknut (3) against actuator shaft (2).
Install cotter pin (4) into pin (5).
Pull the parking brake knob outward, engaging the parking brake by releasing the hydraulic oil pressure in parking brake actuator (1). The stroke of actuator shaft (2) should be between 18 mm (0.71 inch) and 27 mm (1.1 inch). If the stroke exceeds dimension (B), repeat Step 2 through Step 8 to obtain the correct stroke.
After the parking brake has been adjusted, test the
