PARKING BRAKE LEVER STROKE CHECK
1. Pull the parking brake lever with a force of approx. 196
N (44 tbs.) and count the number of notches.
Caution
The 196 N (44 tbs.) force of the parking brake lever
must be strictly observed.
Standard value:
5-7 notches [Operation force: Approx. 196 N (44
Ibs.)]
2. If the parking brake lever stroke is not the standard value,
adjust as described below.
(1) Loosen the adjusting nut to the end of the cable
rod, thus freeing the parking brake cable.
(2) With the engine idling, forcefully depress the brake
pedal five or six times and confirm that the pedal
stroke stops changing.
NOTE
If the pedal stroke stops changing, the
automatic-adjustment mechanism is functioning
normally, and the clearance between the shoe and
drum is correct.
(3) Turn the adjusting nut to adjust the parking brake
lever stroke to the standard value. After adjusting,
check that there is no space between the adjusting
nut and the parking brake lever.
Check that the adjusting nut is also securely held
by the nut holder.
Caution
If the parking brake lever stroke is below the
standard value and the braking is too firm, the
rear brakes may drag.
(4) After adjusting the parking brake lever stroke, jack
up the rear of the vehicle. Release the parking brake
and turn the rear wheels to check that the rear brakes
are not dragging.
