Default Asking for brake help

I am asking for some brake help with my 147. They do not fully engage with the pedal depressed all the way to the floor. I know how to adjust them and they are adjusted to the max





Do the brake pads look worn out?





Sorry if it doesn't show much. I didn't take the wheel off, and that probably would help.

The brakes do engage some; with the pedal locked I can still turn the wheel and the caliper will move, evident that the brakes are engaging, just not enough.

I haven't done much with adjustment as I can operate the hydro just fine and stop that way, but I would like locking brakes.


Thank you!
