5 Parking Brake Lever
WARNING
Correct adjustment is necessary to provide adequate braking. See the Main-
tenance section for adjustment procedures.
Always apply the parking brake when leaving the lift truck.
NOTE: There is a sensor in the seat that actuates an audible alarm. If the opera-
tor leaves the seat, with either system power ON or OFF, without applying the
parking brake, the alarm will sound for 10 seconds.
The lift truck is equipped with a lever to apply the parking brake. Pull the lever to
apply the parking brake. Use your thumb to release the button on the lever when
the lever is moved to release the parking brake.
On units with a pedal, applying the parking brake puts the transmission in NEU-
TRAL. The parking brake must be fully applied for the grade or surface conditions
when operator leaves the lift truck. The lift truck can be started with the park brake
applied.
