Brake & Inching Pedal Adjustment
Type 2 Dual Mater Cylinders
Figure 1. Brake & Inching Pedal Linkage Installation
1.
The service brake and inching pedal linkage installation is designed to require a minimum of maintenance and
adjustment. Periodic adjustment is not required.
2.
Brake linkage adjustment should be made only when it has been found that inching and/or brake response is
inadequate or incorrect:
a)
Pedals do not return fully (insufficient freeplay), or
b)
Full inching or brake master cylinder stroke is not obtained, or
c)
Inching/brake overlap is unsatisfactory.
3.
Two adjustments may be made in the brake & inching pedal linkage:
a)
Adjust the number of washers on inching pedal pushrod for brake overlap:
To increase brake overlap, remove washers to suit desired overlap'. All washers may be removed if
required.
NOTE
Change from standard may affect brake life or glaze brake linings if used frequently with light application.
To decrease brake overlap, add washers to suit desired overlap. 4 washers total max.
b)
Adjust pedal-up stop screw for correct pedal freeplay (master cylinder pushrod clearance).
Brake & Inching Pedal Freeplay 1/4-inch, nominal 1/8-3/8 in. (3.2-9.5 mm) travel @ foot pad
4. Bleed brake and inching system thoroughly before adjusting.
