Service Brake
Service braking is achieved by the hydraulic transmission
system. When the forward or reverse travel pedals are
released or the engine speed reduced, service braking
becomes effective and travel speed is automatically reduced.
To increase the braking effect, push the transmission pedal
into the neutral position. Service braking is effective on the
front wheels only.

WARNING
The service braking system will not hold the mower
at a standstill.
Always ensure that the parking brake is engaged to
park the mower at a standstill.
Emergency Brake
In the event of service brake failure, turn the ignition off to
bring the mower to a stand still.
WARNING
Take care when using the emergency braking.
Remain seated and hold on to the steering wheel
to prevent ejection from the mower caused by the
front wheel brakes being applied suddenly when
travelling.
