WARNING:
 To prevent accidents due to rolling away of the
machine, after parking the machine or before
leaving the machine, be sure to apply the parking
brake.
 Never apply the parking brake while the machine is
moving except in an emergency.
 Apply the parking brake only after the machine has
stopped.
 Failure to do so may cause sudden deceleration
of the machine travel speed, possibly creating a
dangerous situation. Also, premature wear and/or
damage to the parking brake may result. After the
parking brake has been applied in an emergency
while moving the machine, have the parking brake
checked at your nearest authorized dealer.
When parking brake switch (1) is turned ON, the parking
brake is applied; parking brake indicator (2) will be shown.
Press the OFF side of parking brake switch (1) to release the
parking brake. Check that parking brake indicator (2) goes
OFF by pressing the switch firmly clicks.

NOTE:
 The parking brake is released by hydraulic pressure only
when the engine is running.
 To ensure safe operation, when the parking brake is
applied, with the forward/reverse lever moved to the
forward (F) or reverse (R) position, the machine should not
travel.
 To ensure safe operation, when the engine is stopped, the
parking brake is applied even if parking brake switch (1) is
in the OFF or released position.
Before restarting the engine, ensure the forward/reverse
lever and forward/reverse switch (3) are in "Neutral"
position, and forward/reverse selector switch (4) is in OFF
position for safety.
 The parking brake will apply when the key is turned OFF.
