12.8 STOPPING MACHINE
‡ Avoid stopping suddenly. Give yourself ample room when
stopping.
‡ Do not park the machine on slopes.
If the machine has to be parked on a slope, set it facing
directly down the slope, then dig the bucket into the ground
and put blocks under the tires to prevent the machine from
moving.
‡ If the control lever is touched by accident, the work equip-
ment or the machine may move suddenly, and this may lead
to a serious accident. Before leaving the operator's compart-
ment, always set the safety lock lever securely to the LOCK
position.
‡ Even if the parking brake switch is turned ON, there is danger
until the parking brake pilot lamp lights up, so keep the brake
pedal depressed.
NOTICE
Never use the parking brake switch to brake the machine when
traveling except in an emergency. Apply the parking brake only
after the machine has stopped.
1. Release accelerator pedal 1, and depress brake pedal 2 to stop
the machine.
2. Place directional lever 3 in N (neutral).
3. Turn parking brake switch 4 to ON to apply the parking brake.
REMARK
When the parking brake is applied, the transmission is automati-
cally returned to neutral.
