Brake Adjusters

[mbrund]

Well I went a little to far with one of my brake tension adjusters on
my coach and have not been able to determine how to get it to back
off. When I try to turn the wrench the other way, it will not
budge.

How do you get the adjuster to back off?

Michael:
If I can remember correctly, push the wrench hard on the bolt, there is a
locking spring there, it should allow you to turn it.

Since it was built after 1990 it has Auto-Slack adjusters. Since I
had the wheels off I went ahead and adjusted them as if I had just
done a brake job. Tighten them down till they contact the drum and
then back them off 1/3 turn. They where adjusted fairly close, but
figured I would do it anyway.

Finially found the release pin, it was hidden on the back side where
I could not see it. Once I reached around back I found the release
pin and pulled it and was able to back it off 1/3 turn.
