6.2 Parking Brake (Drum Brakes)
|
The parking brake lever and its cable connections are shown in Fig. 6-7. The mechanical parking brake operates only on the rear wheels, and is independent of the hydraulic brake system. Each of the two parking brake cables is connected to a lever on one of the rear brakes shoes. See Fig. 6-6 above. When the parking brake lever is pulled, the brake shoes are forced out against the brake drum.
