Operation: Guide to adjusting the timing chain of the Ssangyong Rexton.

Today we will discover the main steps necessary to adjust the distribution chain of the Ssangyong Rexton, following the instructions provided below. To access the distribution chain, it will be necessary to remove the valve cover and the distribution cover. We can see that there are references on the camshaft pulley that must be aligned with those on the engine cover in order to ensure proper timing.

Handbrake adjustment on Ford Ecosport

First remove the plastic profile at the base of the gear lever. To do this, slightly widen the side edges and carefully lift it to release it. There is no need to remove it completely, just move it forward to avoid bother. Now remove the plastic center console around the handbrake by first working from the rear to release it and lifting it until the brake lever passes. Also in this case it is not necessary to remove it completely but, paying attention to the connected cables, it can be stowed in front of the passenger seat. At this point we notice that at the base of the handbrake lever, on the front, we find a nut. By acting on it, with a 10 wrench, we can adjust the brake force, increasing it by turning the nut clockwise, or decreasing it by turning it counterclockwise. Once adjusted, the center console can be repositioned first, pressing lightly to engage it, and then the profile of the gearbox base.
