With the brake lever engaged, loosen the
lock bolt located on the back side of the
tensioner frame with the 4mm hex wrench.
Note: The lock bolt should only be loosened
enough to be turned by hand and must not
be removed completely.

To tighten the braking mechanism, turn the
brake lever adjusting bolt counter clock-
wise by about 1/8 turn. Retighten the lock
bolt on the back side of the tensioner frame
and check for brake tightness. The tensioner
should move freely along the track with the
brake lever engaged and should hold ten-
