SECTION 2 - OPERATION
2-45
EMERGENCY STOPPING AND PARKING
BRAKE
To apply the parking brake, pull the lever, 1, up. To
release, raise the lever up slightly, then depress
button, 2, and lower the lever.
CAUTION
The parking brake must be engaged before the
operator leaves the seat.
NOTE: A two-minute pulsating audible alarm will
sound with a flashing parking brake lamp to remind
the operator to apply the parking brake if the tractor
engine is stopped without the parking brake applied.
The parking brake indicator lamp will illuminate when
the parking brake is applied.
IMPORTANT: To prevent the tractor from being
driven with the parking brake applied or partially
applied, the transmission gear shift lever can be
moved but the transmission will not engage if the
parking brake is applied. Flashing “P” will be
displayed in the transmission LCD of the EIC and the
parking brake warning lamp will flash along with a
one-second audible alarm.
To operate the transmission, return the shift control
lever to neutral. Apply the foot brakes, then release
the parking brake and reselect a forward or reverse
gear.
