1.33 Handbrake adjustment

1 Chock the front roadwheels and fully release the handbrake.

2 Raise the vehicle at the rear, and support it on axle stands.

3 Check that the handbrake cables are correctly routed and secured by the retaining clips at the appropriate points under the vehicle.

4 The handbrake is checked for adjustment by measuring the amount of movement possible in the handbrake adjuster plungers. These are located on the inside face of each rear brake backplate (see illustration). The total movement of the two plungers combined should be between 0.5 and 2.0 mm. If the movement measured is outside of this tolerance, the handbrake is in need of adjustment. Adjustment is made altering the position of the in-line cable adjuster sleeve (see illustration).

5 When adjustment to the handbrake is necessary, a new adjustment sleeve locking pin will be required, and this must therefore be obtained before making the adjustment.

6 To adjust the handbrake, first ensure that it is fully released, then firmly apply the footbrake a few times to ensure that the rear brake adjustment is taken up by the automatic adjusters. Extract the locking pin from the adjuster sleeve, then turn the sleeve to set the combined movement of the plungers within the tolerance range specified (0.5 to 2.0 mm). Turn the locking nut by hand as tight as is possible (two clicks) against the adjustment sleeve. Now grip the locknut with a suitable wrench, and turn it a further two clicks (maximum).

7 Secure the adjustment by inserting the new lock pin.

8 Check that the operation of the handbrake is satisfactory, then lower the vehicle to the ground, apply the handbrake and remove the
chocks from the front wheels.

9 Remove the blanking plug from the rear of the brake carrier plate, just below and to the rear of the brake caliper.

10 With the handbrake released, insert a screwdriver through the blanking plug hole and engage the end of the screwdriver in the
teeth of the adjuster wheel. Move the screwdriver up and down to turn the adjuster wheel as necessary, until the wheel is just locked.

11 Now back off the adjuster wheel until the wheel can be turned freely without binding.

12 Repeat this procedure on the other brake assembly, then check the operation of the handbrake. Ensure that both wheels are locked when the handbrake lever is applied, and that both are released, with no trace of
binding when the lever is fully released.

13 When all is satisfactory, refit the blanking plugs, and lower the vehicle to the ground. Reapply the handbrake and remove the chocks from the front wheels.

Рисунки я приводил выше.

Есть у меня вопрос: как земерить этот самый свободный ход регулировочных щупов?

Я поступил следующим образом.

Прежде всего, при переборке задних тормозных механизмов я эти щупы вытащил, почистил, смазал, подложил пластиковые шайбочки, чтобы они стояли ровно, не болтались хорошо двигались.

Сильно ослабил трос.

На щупы нажимаю пальцем — хода нет никакого. Придумал нажимать штангенциркулем. Проблема в том, что если слабо нажимать, хода нет. А если сильно — то есть.

Докрутил регулировочную гайку до тех пор, пока сильное нажатие не дало 1,9 мм суммарного хода.

Получилось на восьмом щелчке машину не стронуть с места мотором.

Мне кажется многовато.
