The parking brake control is a yellow, diamond-shaped,
push-pull control knob. Pull the knob out to set the brake,
and push in to release.
Any time you park, use the parking brake.
If
necessary, use wheel chocks to hold the vehicle. Let hot
brakes cool before using the parking brake. If the brakes are
wet, use the brakes lightly while driving in a low gear to heat
and dry them.
WARNING
If a loss of air pressure in
the braking system oc-
curs rapidly, the spring
brakes will be applied
suddenly. This may cause
loss of traction and vehi-
cle control. Refer to your
Chassis Operator's Man-
ual for further information
on the functioning of the
brake system.
PARKING BRAKE
CAUTION
If the low pressure buzzer
or light ever comes on
while the motor home is
in motion, exercise ex-
treme caution. Stop and
park the motor home as
soon and as safely as
possible by down-shifting
the transmission. Apply
the parking brake as
soon as the vehicle is
motionless. The spring
brake system will apply
the brakes as pressure
drops.
WARNING
Never leave your motor
home unattended without
setting the parking brake.
