Parking Brake Inspection and AdjustmentS6RW0D4406001
Inspection
Hold center of parking brake lever grip and pull it up with
200 N (20 kg, 44 lbs) force.
With parking brake lever pulled up as shown, count
ratchet notches. There should be 4 – 9 notches.
Also, check if both right and left rear wheels are locked
firmly.
To count number of notches easily, listen to click sounds
that ratchet makes while pulling parking brake lever
without pressing its button.
One click sound corresponds to one notch.
If number of notches is out of specification, adjust cable
referring to adjustment procedure so as to obtain
specified parking brake stroke.
NOTE
Check tooth tip of each notch for damage or
wear.
If any damage or wear is found, replace
parking brake lever.

Adjustment
NOTE
Make sure for the following conditions before
cable adjustment.
• No air is trapped in brake system.
• Brake pedal travel is proper.
• Start engine and then brake pedal has
been depressed at least 3 times with about
300 N (30 kg, 66 lbs) load.
• Parking brake lever has been pulled up a
few times with about 200 N (20 kg, 44 lbs)
load.
If parking brake cable is replaced with new
one, pull up parking brake lever a few
times with about 500 N⋅m (50 kg, 110 lbs)
force.

After confirming that the conditions are all satisfied,
adjust parking brake lever stroke by loosening or
tightening adjust nut (1).
NOTE
Check brake drum for dragging after
adjustment.
