About the book >.>.> On the foot-brake is situated about the middle of the shaft instead of at the end of the shaft as in the case of the hand-brake. Remove the leather cover and slide back the locking piece D; this is fitted with an “L” slot. which engages with a pin thus holding it clear. Slacken the nut E which holds the ratchet lever F in engagement with the part G. The actuating shaft (which is most conveniently held by a spanner on the boss C) should be moved one tooth forward thus taking up the wear. On no account must the number of notches moved on the two ratchet levers in adjusting be unequal. Numbers 0 1 2 3 are stamped on the edge of each dise to show clearly the exact amount the lever has been moved. Then tighten up nut E and release the piece D from the pin taking care that the castellations on these parts are fully engaged. (LL)
