(3) Position the tubing in the jaws of the Flaring
Tool so that it is flush with the top surface of the
flaring tool bar assembly. (See Fig. 17).
(4) Install the correct size adaptor for the brake
tubing being flared, on the feed screw of the yoke as-
sembly. Center the yoke and adapter over the end of
the tubing. Apply lubricant to the adapter area that
contacts brake tubing. Making sure the adapter pilot
is fully inserted in the end of the brake tubing.
Screw in the feed screw of the yoke assembly until
the adaptor has seated squarely on the surface of the
bar assembly (Fig. 17). This process has created the
(metric) ISO tubing flare.
STOP LAMP SWITCH ADJUSTMENT (ALL
VEHICLES)
The stop lamp switch incorporates a self adjusting
feature. If adjustment or replacement is required,
proceed as follows: Install the switch in the retaining
bracket and push the switch forward as far as it will
go. The brake pedal will move forward slightly (Fig.
18). Gently pull back on the brake pedal bringing the
striker back toward the switch until the brake pedal
will go back no further. This will cause the switch to
ratchet backward to the correct position. Very little
movement is required, and no further adjustment is
necessary.
