    This document provides instructions for adjusting the handbrake on a vehicle. It involves the following steps: 1. Perform an inspection to check for proper braking function when the first tooth is engaged and for acceptable differences in left and right wheel forces. 2. Adjust the handbrake if the actuation stroke is greater than 10 teeth or if certain brake components have been replaced. 3. Set the brake shoes by loosening cables, finding tapped holes, and adjusting screws. 4. Adjust the Bowden cables by hand-tightening nuts, applying brake force, and checking for braking at specific teeth levels and proper indicator lighting.

    34 10 014 Adjusting handbrake

    Special tools required:

     34 1 030

    Perform inspection in the following manner:


    When 1st tooth is engaged, no braking effect should be present.
    The difference on wheel circumferential forces (left / right wheel) must not deviate from larger
    value by more than 30% (measured on the roller test rig).
    In event of greater deviations of wheel circumferential force, it is essential to carry out a
    readjustment.
    It should be possible to hold vehicle with handbrake.
    The handbrake must be readjusted whenever the actuation stroke is greater than 10 teeth.
    Note:
    Handbrake can only be adjusted correctly if
    handbrake cables and all moving parts of
    handbrake move easily and function correctly.
    Basic handbrake adjustment is necessary
    when:
    - Replacing handbrake shoes.
    - Replacing brake disks.
    - Resetting adjustment unit.
    - Excessive actuation stroke (10 teeth).
    - Replacing handbrake Bowden cables.

    Setting instruction for brake shoes (basic


    1.
    setting)
    Lift out dust cover.
    Using special tool 34 1 030, release lock nuts
    and completely loosen Bowden cables.
    Installation:
    Secure adjustment nut with lock nut.

    Completely unscrew one wheel stud on each


    rear wheel.
    Turn wheel until tapped hole is located at
    bottom.
    Installation:
    Install and tighten wheel bolt.
    Tightening torque,
    refer to Technical Data 36 10 1AZ.

    Turn adjusting screw with a screwdriver until


    the wheel is no longer able to turn.
    Then unfasten the adjusting screw 12 notches.
    Setting instruction for handbrake Bowden
    2.
    cables
    After basic setting has been completed, the
    adjustment nuts must be uniformly hand-
    tightened before the Bowden cables are
    adjusted.
    Then the handbrake lever must be tightened 5
    times to approx. 400 N hand-lever force with
    the release button pressed.

    2.1 By hand
    Apply 2 teeth of handbrake lever and adjust
    adjusting nuts until braking action begins.
    Release handbrake lever; it must be possible to
    turn wheels easily.
    Switch ignition on; indicator light must not be
    on when handbrake lever is released.
    No braking effect; indicator lamp
    1st tooth:
    can be lit.
    braking effect must engage;
    indicator lamp must be lit. If the
    2nd
    lamp is not lit, the switch contact
    tooth:The
    on the handbrake lever must be
    adjusted.
    2.2 On roller dynamometer
     
    Vehicles with manual
    transmission: Shift lever in
    0th tooth neutral position.
    (handbrake Vehicles with automatic
    released): transmission: Selector lever
    in "N" position.
    Wheel circumferential force
    at idle ≤ 150 N.
    No brake force increase;
    1st tooth:
    indicator lamp can be lit.
    2nd tooth: Indicator lamp must be lit.
    Adjust handbrake cables
    3rd tooth: until brake force indicator
    shows 500N + 50N.
    3. Braking in duo-servo handbrake
    The following braking-in procedures are
    applicable in case of insufficient braking
    effect or after replacing brake disks and/or
    brake shoes.

    3.1 On roller dynamometer


    Actuate handbrake lever until the wheel
    circumferential force on both wheels is at least
    800 N.
    Release parking brake lever after approx. 40
    seconds.

    3.2 When driving on road


    (Where possible on factory premises or quiet
    road)
    At approx. 40 km/h, apply handbrake lever
    until braking action can be felt.
    Pull up handbrake lever into next catch and
    drive on for approx. 400 m.
    A basic requirement is that handbrake is
    adjusted uniformly.
    Note:
    Repeat braking-in procedure if necessary;
    allow brake to cool down sufficiently.
