PARKING BRAKE
NOTE: There are 2 brakes, 1 on each transaxle.
The parking brake should keep the machine from
moving. To check the parking brake, park the ma-
chine on a level surface, open the bypass valves
(See purging transaxles scection for instruction) and
set the parking brake to ON. Attempt to move the
machine forward and backward by pushing it. If the
machine moves, adjust the parking brake linkage as
follows:
1. Move the machine to a at horizontal surface.
2. Move the parking brake handle to the OFF posi-
tion.
3. Insure that the brake links K are rotated toward
the rear of the machine. If not, remove cotter pin
P from each brake link K and brake rod R. Slide
brake rod R out of each brake link K. Reinsert
rod R into each link K and secure with cotter pin
P.
4. Tighten brake nut N as needed. The length of
the threads protruding past the nut should mea-
sure 1/8" - 1/4".
5. Retest to insure the machine does not move.
