  3. Loosen jam nut (1) Using a 9/16 inch wrench.

  4. Use feeler gages to measure the clearance between the front pad and the rotor. Turn centering bolt until clearance is 0.35 ± 0.10 mm (0.014 ± 0.004 inch) and tighten jam nut.

  5. Remove the cap covering the adjustment screw (6).

  6. Using a ratchet wrench and 1/2 inch socket, turn the screw (6) until the rear pad (5) to rotor (4) gap is 0.35 ± 0.10 mm (0.014 ± 0.004 inch). Use feeler gage to measure clearance. Reinstall the dust cap.

  7. Release the hydraulic pressure.

Parking Brake Check

  1. Start the engine, engage the parking brake, and place the gear selector in manual mode.

  2. Move the direction control from "F" to "N" to "F" with in 3 seconds. The parking brake lockout is now disabled.

  3. Select the second gear forward. Slowly increase the engine to high idle while monitoring the RPM. Refer to Table 1. If machine holds at RPM, brake check is complete. If the machine moves before RPM is reached, go to step 4

  4. Turn the engine start switch to the OFF position. Install the steering lock engage the parking brake and chock the wheels.

  5. Readjust park brake to 0.35 mm (0.014 inch) running clearance between each pad and disc, using the adjust procedure outlined in the previous section.

  6. Repeat Step 1 through Step 3. If machine still does not meet the required engine speed, replace brake pads.
