I assume you mean the power boosted steering clutches....there are no power brakes.
There are actually two things to check.

If it is just the brake adjusting procedure you need let me know and I will post.

Hi,
I'm kinda new around here, I would like to see the brake adjustment procedure and anything you can tell me about troubleshooting a steering clutch booster. one side works, but the other doesn't.

First thing to check on the steering booster is that the levers fully retract. If they don't one side will affect the other.

Thanks, I'll dig into it as soon as the rain stops. Also, I apologize for not having a cool nickname.

I adjusted the free play per instructions, but the left side still did not work. I discovered that the left side would work if i pushed the right side forward. this led me to remove the floor plate where i discovered the jam nut on the push rod had backed off. I adjusted the push rod and tightened the jam nut and that cured it!

the next problem is going to be the stuck nut on the brake band adjustment. I was hoping i could adjust the brake without removing the tank, but it's not looking too good. I am soaking it in kroil and will try again in a day or two.

thanks again for the help
