Default Tost Lilliput brake question

In general you will also find that there is not enough movement in the handle to move the arm far enough to provide adequate braking unless the brake is adjusted to touching the drum at rest. After deglazing, I adjust the cable until there is a light dragging with with the handle in the fully open position. The handle should have almost no movement to provide full braking.
