Pedal height adjustment

If you need to increase the pedal height, turn the brake light switch so that it does not touch the pedal.

1. Secure the brake pedal arm connection to the clevis with a 6mm pin or M6 bolt (IHCC models only).

2. Loosen the lock nut (10 mm) of the shackle and adjust the pedal height by rotating the push rod. After adjustment, tighten the lock nut.

3. Loosen the lock nut (10 mm) of the brake light switch and screw the switch until the end of the threaded part of the switch touches the brake pedal (pedal depressed). Then turn the switch back ¼ turn (approx. 0.3 mm) and tighten the lock nut (10 mm).

4. After adjustment, remove the 6mm diameter pin (IHCC models only).

Attention:

After adjusting the pedal, make sure there is free play. If there is no free play, the brake pads may be touching the brake discs.

After adjusting the pedal, make sure the brake lights are working properly.
