Note:   Due to the automatic readjustment, adjustment of the drum brake is only necessary after disassembly of the brake, replacement of the drum hub or replacement of the brake shoe. Ensure that parking brake lever is released prior to adjustment. If the braking effect on the wheels is not equal, the components of the drum brake and the parking brake cables must be checked and replaced if necessary.
