[QUOTE="johnful, post: 383181, member: 11662"] Hi Debbie, Before you fabricate a new brake, there's a screw on the bottom side that goes into the course adjustment knob which is on the top. Try putting a little thin washer in there and see if it helps. If it does, you can take the screw out, grind it down slightly so its a little shorter, then put it back together. Sounds to me like things loosened up enough that the screw is hitting the end of the hole in the coarse adjustment knob. It's worth a shot. J [/QUOTE]
