[C320-list] Wheel Brake

We once replaced the pads on Isle of Wight #851.
The pads removed had no wear and the new pads do not holdget to the either.
When we looked at the Edson sitr it looked like a washer or two placed in the locking mechanism would do the trick.  
We haven't done it because we don't feel like messing with removing the compass and all below it to do the adjustment.
Juat replacing the pads was not the solution on #851.
