Adjust Brakes (Workman 1100 And 2100, Serial Number Above 230000000) - Toro Workman 1100 Service Manual

Adjust Brakes (Workman 1100 and 2100, Serial Number Above 230000000)

The recommended brake pedal travel is from 1" to 1 1/2"
(25.4 to 38.1 mm) with a 75 to 100 pound (34 to 45.4 kg)
input force to the brake pedal.
Adjustment Procedure (Fig. 2)
1. Park vehicle on a level surface, turn on/off switch
OFF and remove key from the on/off switch.
2. Depress brake pedal lightly (10 to 15 pound input
force) until resistance is achieved. Check the gap be-
tween the brake lever and the brake lever stop to deter-
mine the distance the brake equalizer needs to be
adjusted.
3. Remove the cotter pin and clevis pin that secure the
brake rod clevis to the brake lever.
4. Disconnect the spring from the hole near the end of
the brake rod.
5. Press the brake pedal down fully to raise the brake
lever away from the brake rod clevis.
IMPORTANT:When adjusting the brake rod, do not
overtighten! The self–adjusting mechanism on the
brakes requires the brake levers to fully return.
Overtightening of the brake rod will not allow self–
adjusting of the brakes and will cause premature
brake wear.
6. Thread the brake rod in or out of the brake equalizer
as needed to remove the gap identified in Step 2.
7. Reinstall the spring into the hole in the brake rod.
NOTE: Use a pry bar placed between the accelerator
pivot shaft and the brake equalizer to aid in installation
of the clevis pin that secures the brake rod clevis to the
brake lever.
8. Connect the brake rod clevis to the brake lever using
the clevis pin and cotter pin removed previously.
9. Verify that brake pedal travel is from 1" to 1 1/2" (25.4
to 38.1 mm) with a 75 to 100 pound (34 to 45.4 kg) input
force to the brake pedal.
