Adjusting The Brake Force - Drum Brake; Adjusting The Footplate Angle - Otto M1 Intro Bedienungsanleitung

6.6 Adjusting the Brake Force – Drum Brake (Fig� 48)
The brake force is adjusted at the adjustment screw to achieve optimal braking effect. The brake
force is increased by turning the adjustment screw (Fig. 48, item A) counter-clockwise and de-
creased 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 (Fig.
48, item B).
INfORMATION
Ensure that the brake force of both rear wheels is adjusted equally.
INfORMATION
Make sure that the drum brake engages with sufficient force only when the manual brake lever is set
to the second ratchet position.
6.7 Adjusting the Footplate Angle (Fig� 49, item A)
Prior to adjusting the footplate angle, loosen the screw connections as indicated in the figure.
Then set the footplate to the desired angle.
INfORMATION
Make sure to re-tighten the loosened screw connections. The proper torque is 6 Nm.
