8.11 Brake pedal
The machine can be braked when driving

brake pedal.

The more firmly the brake pedal (1) is
pressed, the more the rear wheels are
braked.

The rear wheels of the machine
are blocked by the engaged

inadvertently (e.g. on slopes, etc.).
Engaging the parking brake:

with the foot and hold.
Pull the parking brake lever (2) upwards.
Release the brake pedal again. The
parking brake is activated if the brake
pedal remains in the pressed position.
Release the parking brake lever. This
swings downwards. The rear wheels
are blocked.
Releasing the parking brake:
Briefly press on brake pedal (1) with the
foot.
Note!
Both rear wheels are braked when
the brake pedal is pressed.
The brake only acts upon the two
rear wheels.
Warning!
Never operate the machine with a
defective brake.
Always have a defective brake
repaired or adjusted by a specialist
dealer.
STIHL recommends
STIHL specialist dealers.
Never try to service the brakes
yourself.
Note
Always check the function of the
brakes before engaging the parking
brake.
