Garaventa Lift EVACU-TRAC CD7 Owner's Manual
3. The final step is to ensure
that the Track Parking Brake
is functioning correctly. It is
designed to stop and hold
rated load on the stairway.
To do this, the Brake Spring
must pull on the Brake
Mechanism without any
resistance from the Brake
Cable. This can happen if the
Front Brake Cable does not
have sufficient slack.
To check this, lay the open
Evacu-Trac on its side.
Locate the Front Brake Cable.
It should have approximately
19 mm (3/4 in) of slack, when
measured vertically from the
reference point shown in the
drawing to the right.
Adjust the cable as required
using the Adjusting Nut on the
Brake Actuation Arm. Tighten
the Adjusting Nut and test the
function of the Brake. It
should stop and hold Evacu-
Trac on the stairway with
rated load. It should also
release fully when the Brake
Release Bar is squeezed all
the way back to the handle,
allowing Evacu-Trac to
descend the stairway at a
comfortable speed, as shown
in the Training Video.
