Parking brake question

How high should one set the hand brake? I've heard that you can break the cable if you set it too high. Is that true? On the other hand, I don't want to roll back if I set it too low.

Re: Parking brake question

Never heard of breaking it. I just pull it with a moderate force. It never rolls and I've never had a problem. My wife's brother seems to yank it as hard as he can, but I really don't see the need. As long as it's not rolling you should be fine (and that usually doesn't take a whole lot of force).
