3.2 Parking Brake
The parking brake is located to the left of the operator seat, just in front of the left steering
control arm. To set the parking brake, grasp the handle and pull upward, increasing the
brake tension, until the tension prevents any further travel of the handle. The ratchet gear
will lock the handle into position.
If, while the parking brake is set, the key switch is turned to the RUN or START position,
the parking brake indicator light will come on (the red light located to the upper right cor-
ner of the control panel), and an audible warning beeper will sound. This is to warn you
that the brake is set, and you should release the brake before attempting to operate the
Articulator. Releasing the parking brake will deactivate both the indicator light and the
warning beeper.
To release the parking brake, pull upward on the handle to relieve the brake tension,
depress the button on the end of the handle, and slowly return the handle all the way
down to its original position.
ALWAYS set the parking brake before performing any set-up,
inspection, adjustments, or maintenance to the Articulator!
ALWAYS release the parking brake before operating the Articulator!
