8.10 Acceptance Inspections and Tests8.10.2.2.2.(v)The means of adjusting the holding capacity of the brake shall be sealed to prevent changing the adjustment without breaking the seal. The seal shall bear or otherwise attach the identification of the person or firm that installed it. (See also 8.6.1.7.2 Periodic Test Tags)Rationale: Increased frequency of testing the critical braking system will

aid in monitoring the performance of the braking system. Sealing the brake adjustment will ensure adjustment is not

inadvertently changed between testing periods. It is necessary to identify the party that applied the seal.
