Adjusting The Parking Brake - Husqvarna R 214T AWD Operator's Manual

3 If necessary, the wires can be adjusted by tightening the
adjuster nuts on each side of the steering collar. Do not
over tighten the cables; they should only be drawn in
towards the steering collar.
4 Unscrew the belt shields and the side protectors. The
protectors are fitted on both sides of the machine.
Hold the cable, for example using an adjustable wrench,
so that it does not twist.
If the adjustment is only made on one side, the middle
position of the steering will be affected.
Check the wire tension on completion of the adjustment
as per item 2.
5 Screw on the belt shields and the side protectors.
Remember to use the right screws in each mounting.
