Engage the parking brake whenever you plan on leaving

disengage, press and release the brake pedal. If the sprayer
is parked on a steep grade, apply the parking brake and
place the blocks on the downhill side of the wheels.
Throttle Lever
The throttle lever, located on the control panel between the
