Instruction manual

Adjust rear brake by :

Place machine on centre stand if spring frame, otherwise on rear stand.

Screw further on the brake rod the knurled adjusting nut till, by rotating the wheel,

it can be felt the brake shoes are just touching the brake drum.

Then unscrew the adjusting nut two complete turns. (The adjusting nut is automatically

locked in position in virtue of the two projecting noses on it engaging in accommodating

slots cut in the clip which connects the brake rod and brake expander lever and being

retained in that position by the spring which encircles the rear end of the brake rod.)

BRAKE PEDAL ADJUSTMENT

The position of the rear brake pedal can be adjusted within narrow limits. This is done

by means of a bolt screwed into the heel of the pedal. The adjusting bolt is locked by

a nut.

The best position, for normal use, is to position the pedal so that, when the brake is

" off," it is just clear of the under-side of the footrest arm.

After altering the adjustment of the brake pedal, rear brake adjustment should be checked

RIMS AND SPOKES

The front and rear rims are each drilled for forty spokes, but they are not interchangeable

because the nipple holes in the front rim are smaller than those in the rear rim. See

" DATA."

The dimensions of spokes will be found in " DATA."
