Parking and safety brake
There are two operating modes for the parking brake, determined by
the position of the pawl (A). To change from one mode to the other, turn
the pawl.
To release the hand brake
• Put the pawl in position 1.
• Pull the lever gently forward to release the yoke from the toothed
wheel, then push the lever fully backwards.
To engage the hand brake
• Put the pawl in position 2.
• Pull the lever firmly forward until it is fully engaged.
Safety brake:
• Put the pawl in position 2.
• Adjust and solidly fix the link on the parking brake wire to a fixed
point on the tractor. If the sprayer accidentally comes unhitched
whilst moving, the wire will activate the parking brake before
breaking.
IMPORTANT! For the safety brake to operate correctly without
damaging the hand brake, use a wire with a break link.

WARNING! Release the parking brake before moving.
Hydraulic braking
How the hydraulic braking device is fitted depends on the tyres used.
If they are changed, it is essential that you use the brake control cylinder
fixing points indicated.
