abutment, on both sides.
2. Tighten the parking brake cable adjustment nut until movement is observed on one of the
parking brake levers.
3. Remove the feeler gauges.
4. Rotate the rear wheels and tires and check for brake drag. If brake drag is felt, loosen
the parking brake cable adjustment nut to
the end of the parking brake cable thread,
clean the parking brake cables and repeat
the parking brake cable adjustment
procedure.
5. If brake drag is still felt after, repeat the adjustment using a 1.0 mm feeler gauge. If
brake drag is still felt, loosen the parking
brake adjustment nut and reduce the feeler
gauge measurement by 0.2 mm each time,
until no brake drag can be felt at the rear
