Introduction

Initial setup
In this section we’ll explain how to mount
the handbrake to your rig and make fine
adjustments to the setup.
Mounting materials
A selection of bolts, nuts and T-nuts is included
with your handbrake. These will in many cases be
sufficient to create a solid mount between your
simulator, the handbrake and the optional adapter
plate.
Please note that there is a great variety of simulator
platforms available and we cannot foresee every
possible mounting scenario. We can therefore not
rule out that you may need to source some mounting
materials yourself.
Overall position of the handbrake
Before starting the installation, determine the overall
position of the handbrake which works best on your
simulator. Take the following into account:
• The base can be mounted in a horizontal or
vertical position.
• The lever can be mounted in a horizontal or
vertical position (relative to the base).
Changing the orientation of the lever
By default the lever is in a horizontal position. The
lever can be reassembled to a vertical position
relative to the base of the handbrake.
