I just did my first big service on my CT225 (400 hour, I got it at 360) and all went well except the brake adjustment. I have both the owners manual and the full service manual. The first talks about adjusting "pedal free travel" and the service book describes "pedal clearance". Neither book mentions both. I'm not sure how the two relate to each other, but I can't seem to do both together. One adjustment screws up the other. The picture for the clearance adjustment is also a bit confusing. It shows the right pedal sitting lower than the left but the guy has a thumb on that pedal. Is he pulling it down or just measuring the difference at rest?
When I finished the first go the pedals were too stiff to allow the parking brake to engage so I backed it off a bit but still noticed the left wheel dragging a bit in the snow. Tried again and still don't seem to have it quite right. Anyone out there more familiar with the process than I seem to be?
Thanks
