PARK BRAKE PEDAL
The park brake pedal is the small raised portion in the upper left corner of the brake pedal. It has the word PARK
molded into it. To set the park brake, press the brake pedal firmly and tilt the park brake portion of the pedal forward
with your foot (Figure 19). See following WARNING and NOTE.
WARNING
• The park brake will release automatically when either the accelerator or brake pedal is pressed. The
park brake has multiple locking positions and should be firmly pressed and locked to prevent the
vehicle from rolling.
NOTE: Vehicles equipped with lights: On early 2009 model gasoline vehicles, after the park brake is engaged, the
brake lights may remain illuminated for up to four minutes.
NEUTRAL LOCKOUT
For the convenience of the trained technician, there is a neutral lockout cam located on the back of the
Forward/Reverse shifter. If the neutral lockout cam is pulled out approximately 3/8 inch (10 mm) and then rotated
one-half turn until it snaps into place, the cam will be in the MAINTENANCE position (Figure 20). This will allow the
technician to operate the engine in neutral for certain maintenance procedures. With the cam in this position, the
vehicle will not operate if the Forward/Reverse handle is placed in either the FORWARD or REVERSE position.
To put the cam back into the OPERATE position, pull the cam out approximately 3/8 inch (10 mm) and rotate it one-half
turn until it snaps into place (Figure 21). See following WARNING and NOTE.
WARNING
• With the cam in the MAINTENANCE position and the engine running, the vehicle may move suddenly if
the Forward/Reverse handle is shifted or accidentally bumped. To prevent this, chock the front and
rear wheels and firmly set the park brake before servicing or leaving the vehicle.
NOTE: Be sure to return the cam to the OPERATE position after servicing the vehicle, or it will not operate with the
Forward/Reverse handle in either the FORWARD or REVERSE position.
