Installation Guide

1. Preparation: Remove the existing cable by loosening the mounting screws and carefully detaching it from the handbrake lever and rear brake assembly.
2. Routing: Position the new ABS K10767 cable along the original path, ensuring that it follows the same bends and clearances. Avoid sharp turns that could induce stress points.
3. Tension Adjustment: Use the built‑in tensioning screw to set the correct slack. The lever should engage smoothly without excessive force or free play.
4. Securing: Tighten all mounting bolts and verify that the cable is firmly seated in its housings. Check for any kinks or obstructions.
5. Testing: Operate the handbrake lever to confirm proper engagement of the rear brakes. Observe the brake pads for uniform contact with the rotors or drums.

Maintenance Tips

• Inspect the cable annually for signs of wear, corrosion, or fraying. Replace immediately if any damage is detected.
• Avoid exposing the cable to harsh chemicals or excessive moisture; clean with a mild solvent if necessary.
• When adjusting tension, use a calibrated torque wrench to prevent over‑tightening that could compromise cable integrity.
