Each free fall equipped drum has a spring-applied, hydraulically-released free

brake can be applied at any time to slow down and stop the load.
The brake pedals have no function and are inoperable when operating with free
off.
• Depress to apply the free fall brake in relation to pedal movement. Fully
depress and latch the pedal to fully apply the brake.
• Depress the heel of the latch to unlatch the pedal and then release the pedal
(ease up) to release the free fall brake gradually as the pedal rises.
