Service Brakes
The left and right brake pedals (Figure 14) are connected
to the left and right front wheels. Since both brakes
work independently of each other, the brakes can be
used to turn sharply or to increase traction if one wheel
tends to slip while operating on certain slope conditions.
However, wet grass or soft turf could be damaged when
brakes are used to turn sharply. To make a "quick-stop",
depress both brake pedals together. Always lock brakes
together when transporting the traction unit.
