Brake Pedal Position Adjustment

~1min read

NOTE

Usually it is not necessary to adjust the pedal position, but always adjust it when push rod locknut has been loosened.

  • Loosen the locknut [A] and turn the push rod with the hex head [B] to achieve the correct pedal position.

If the length [C] shown is 69 В±1 mm (2.7 В±0.04 in.), the pedal position will be within the standard range.

  • Tighten: Torque - Rear Master Cylinder Push Rod Locknut: 17 NВ·m (1.7 kgfВ·m, 13 ftВ·lb)
  • Check the brake light switch operation (see Brake Light Switch Operation Inspection in the Periodic Maintenance chapter).
