PARKING BRAKE ADJUSTMENT 
4.3.1   The park brake can be adjusted by 

removing the rod from the lever and 
rotating clockwise to increase brake 
tension. When properly adjusted the park 
brake lever should require 18 to 22 pounds 
force to set the brake.  If this adjustment 
does not result in proper brake action, 
contact your authorized Snapper dealer for 
corrective action. See Figure 4.4. 

 

DO NOT  operate machine if brakes are not 
functioning properly.
