They need to be parallel with each other so that they are each applying the brakes at the same torque. I'd argue that when applied they need to be approaching 90 degrees, as the angle will increase with wear and you do not want them to go over 90.

Dave,what do the arms need to be paralell with? each other? what about the previous comment about them not being over 90 degrees when the brake is applied? Alan
Sorry should have made it a bit clearer, paralell with each other in the on position and of course the included angle must not be less than 90deg. Sorry about that but do give it a try, bit fiddly but remember Vincents are engineers machines!.
