PART III - ADJUSTMENT
The proper adjustment of the e-brake is critical so that the rear brakes are quickly engaged before the full motion of e-brake handle is exhausted but with the rear wheels being allowed to spin freely with the e-brake disengaged. The Bentley manual states that the e-brake is properly adjusted when both rear wheels are difficult to turn with the handle raised up four notches and rotate freely with the handle all the way down. I prefer the handle to be a little firmer/tighter than this, and have it adjusted so that the rear wheels are difficult to turn at the second notch. You may use the second, third or fourth notch depending on what feel you prefer and as long as the above two conditions are met.
To adjust the e-brake handle, perform the following steps:
19. Lower the e-brake handle completely.
20. Firmly depress the brake pedal once.
21. Raise the handle to the fourth notch (or whatever one you prefer).
22. Tighten (or loosen) the compensator nut until both rear wheels become difficult to turn.
23. Lower the handle completely and make sure that both rear wheels spin freely. If one or more doesn't, loosen the compensator nut a little at a time until both wheels spin freely.
The e-brake mechanism should now be properly adjusted.
