BRAKE PEDAL
ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION
1. CHECK PEDAL HEIGHT
Pedal height from asphalt sheet:
EZ Grade:
143.0 - 153.0 mm (5.630 - 6.024 in.)
Except EZ Grade:
140.0 - 150.0 mm (5.512 - 5.906 in.)
If the pedal height is incorrect, adjust it.
2. IF NECESSARY, ADJUST PEDAL HEIGHT
(a) Disconnect the connector from the stop light switch.
(b) Loosen the stop light switch lock nut and remove the stop
light switch.
(c) Loosen the push rod lock nut.
(d) Adjust the pedal height by turning the pedal push rod.
(e) Tighten the push rod lock nut.
Torque: 25 N´m (260 kgf´cm, 19 ft´lbf)
(f) Install the stop light switch and turn it until it lightly con-
tacts the pedal stopper.
(g) Turn the stop light switch back one turn.
(h) Check the clearance (A) between stop light switch and
pedal.
Clearance: 0.5 - 2.4 mm (0.020 - 0.094 in.)
(i) Tighten the stop light switch lock nut.
(j) Connect the connector to the stop light switch.
(k) Check the stop lights come on when the brake pedal is de-
pressed, and go off when the brake pedal is released.
(l) After adjusting the pedal height, check the pedal freeplay.
HINT:
If clearance (A) between the stop light switch and the brack ped-
al stopper has been adjusted correctly, the pedal freeplay will
meet the specifications.
