Adjustment of the emergency brake

As back brakes are self-regulating, you need to carry out their adjustment only after replacement: ropes of the emergency brake, supports of brakes, brake disks, brake shoes.

Always in the beginning carry out the general adjustment of back brakes.
PERFORMANCE ORDER
1) tighten an adjusting nut of a rope of a parking brake so that both levers (one of them is specified by an arrow) rose from an emphasis (two mechanics are for this purpose necessary)
2) put the adjusting clamp (it is specified by an arrow) back on two turns
3) by means of the screw-driver take away the support lever against the stop in turn on both back wheels
4) the rope of the emergency brake is tense too strongly if the lever of one of supports departs from an emphasis
5) weaken an adjusting nut of a rope of the emergency brake (it is specified by an arrow) so that both levers fell by an emphasis
6) put the car on the emergency brake, and then remove
7) check that both wheels rotated freely
