Problem Adjusting Brakes


kirk

Recommended Posts

Actually, the star wheel is a nut running on a thread so it is possible to work out which way to turn it.

It is possible but logic sometimes fails when lying under the caravan looking at things upside down(well it does for me!)

John Wickersham in his manual says

"An arrow stamped on many backing plates indicates which way to turn the adjuster to increase braking. Otherwise the direction is establised by trial and error"

If up doesn't do it then down will etc :D

i took some pics on my phone today when i was doing a set of Alko brakes thing is i dont know how to up load the pics, Doh !!!

You need to get them onto the internet using something like Photobucket

It then gives you various links to chose from

It gives you a way of getting pics etc from your files so the mobile phone pics are first loaded onto your computer and Photobucket can then bring up your "My Pictures" etc for you to select the one to find the link

Hope that helps
