ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE OF BRAKE PEDAL
The push rod serves to stop the brake p edal when released.
Brake pedal height adjustment should be performed as
follows:
RTW35CSH000601
Brake Pedal – Height
1. Rotate the brake light swit ch counter-clockwise to release,
then remove from the mounting bracket.
2. Check that the pedal is fully released an d not binding, by
lightly lifting the pedal, assisting the pedal return spring.
3. Measure the brake pedal height (L2) with the pedal in the
fully released position.
Notes:
• Pedal height (L2) must be measured after starting the
engine and providing full vacuum to the booste r.
• Pedal free play (L1) must be measured after turni ng off
the engine, then applying/releasing the brake pedal at
least five times to exhaust stored vacuum. mm(in)
Pedal free play (L1) 6 – 10 (0.23 – 0.39)
M/T 174 – 186 (6.85 – 7.32)
Pedal Height (L2) RHD A/T 176 – 188 (6.93 – 7.40)

4. If the pedal height (L2) is not within the above range,
adjust as follows:
a) Check that the stop lamp switch has been removed.
b) Loosen the lock nut on the push rod clevis yoke.
c) Adjust the brake pedal to the specified height (L2)
by rotating the push rod in the appropriate direction.
d) The gap between the stoplight swit ch mount and the
pedal bracket (A) sh ould then be from 5 – 8 mm.
e) Tighten the push rod lock nut to the specified torque.
Lock Nut Torque N⋅m(kgf⋅m/lb⋅ft)
12 – 18 (1.2 – 1.8 / 9 - 13)
f) Reinstall the stop lamp swit ch, using the following
procedure.
NOTE:
Pedal height (L2) must be 80 mm (3.14 in.) or more when
applying about 50 kg (110.25 lbs. ) of stepping force.

Connecting Pedal and Fitting Stop Lamp Switch.
1.
lign the hole in the booster & master cylinder rod clevis
yoke with the hole in the brake pedal.
2. Insert the clevis pin into these holes from left side of the
pedal and secure with snap clip.
3. Pull the brake pedal upwards to take up all slack and hold
in this position.
4. With your other hand, install the brake light switch until the
switch plunger is completely depressed.
5. Turn the switch clock-wise until a “click” sound is made,
locking the switch into position.
6. The pedal when released should now have a small
amount of free-play
