Disassembly
To disassemble the brake pedal shafts from the brake main cylinder housing, remove the pipe plug and screw the threaded end of the special tool No. J-1441 into the key and remove the key. Fig. 123.
The pedals and shafts can then be removed from the housing.
To replace the pedals, install each pedal shaft in the housing, then insert the key end of the special tool into the opening in the housing to line up the key grooves in the shafts.
Remove the tool and install the key. Assemble the plug and tighten it securely.
Lubrication
The pedal shaft bearings are lubricated during assembly and ordinarily should not require addi­tional lubrication. Should it become necessary to lubricate these bearings remove the brass plug in the center of the key retaining plug and install a lubrication fitting. Lubricate the bushings and replace the plug.
NOTE—Care should be used not to overlubri-cate the pedal shaft bearing, because the excess grease would drip down on the rubber boot on the front of the brake main cylinder and damage the boot.
