Park Brake Lever Lock
Your snowmobile may have a park brake lever lock located over the
brake lever. Use the brake lever lock only when you want the machine
to remain stationary; for example, when parked on an incline for a
period of five minutes or less. To apply the lock, squeeze the brake
handle and push forward on the brake lever lock. Hold the lock
forward and release the brake handle.
If the brake handle is squeezed tightly enough, the lock will move
freely into place. Do not force the lock or it may break. To release the
lock, squeeze the brake handle until the lever returns to the unlock
position. The park brake light on the console will light up when the
park brake lever lock is set and the engine is running. It will also be lit
when the service brake is in use. If the park brake light does not come
on when the park brake or service brake is in use, have it serviced by
your dealer.

WARNING
If the park brake lever lock is partially or entirely engaged while
riding, overheating of the brakes could occur, resulting in brake
damage. In extreme cases it could cause a fire, which could
result in serious injury or death.
