PARKING / SERVICE BRAKE ________________________________________________

Inspect brakes pads:
whenever wheels are removed,
if groomer creeps on hills with parking brake applied,
or there is a noticeable increase in stopping distance.
To adjust brake cables:
1. Raise groomer and support the unit using jack stands or
blocks so that all three wheels are slightly raised off the
ground.
2. Back off nut (G).
3. With the brake pedal all the way up (disengaged) turn in
adjusting nut (H) and spin wheels slowly by hand until
you feel brakes engage and wheels begin to bind.
4. Back off adjuster nut (H) slightly until wheels again turn
freely.
5. Tighten nut (G) to lock adjustment in place.
6. Repeat for second cable.

Before returning unit to operation, drive groomer in a flat,
open area and check operation of brakes to make sure they
are operating correctly. Check parking brake to make sure it
engages properly and prevents the groomer from rolling
downhill.
