WARNING
Adjustment to length of rod assemblies must be accom-
plished by adjusting both end clevises or rod end bearings
evenly. Rod end clevises or rod end bearings must maintain
specified thread engagement length from end of rod assem-
blies as a minimum at all times. Failure to comply could re-
sult in rod assembly separation causing loss of vehicle ser-
vice brake, resulting in personnel injury or equipment
damage.
NOTE
If an alignment is performed, an adjustment is also neces-
sary. An adjustment alone can be performed, if required.
Bleeding must be performed if any hydraulic lines or compo-
nents are repaired or replaced.
