Is your brake pad getting squeezed at all by your brake calipers?

i just checked it and it is getting squeezed just a little though. should i titen the screws that hold on the calibers? will that help?thanks

It sounds like you need to either adjust your linkages, or your servo trim settings, or a combination of both.

While you are adjusting the brakes to engage, turn your spur gear as you are applying the brakes. It should be a strong "catch" no slipping at all from the spur gear.

It can be a bit tricky so adjust your linkage a little at a time, apply the brakes and try to turn the spurgear.
