Adjusting The Brake Force - Drum Brake; Angle Adjustment Of The Footplate - Otto Bock Motus Bedienungsanleitung

6�5 Adjusting the Brake force - Drum Brake (Fig. 40)
In order to achieve optimal braking effect, the brake force can be adjusted by means of the
adjustment screw (fig. 40, item 1). The brake force is increased by turning the screw counter-
clockwise and decreased by turning the screw clockwise.
Turn the adjustment screw counter-clockwise until frictional noise occurs at the turning wheel.
Then tighten the adjustment screw until the frictional noise disappears. The wheel should run
freely.
After finishing the adjustment, fasten the adjustment screw by tightening the counter nut.
Ensure that the brake force of both rear wheels is adjusted equally.
