NOTE: X32N models have two identical brake
adjustment nuts located on both sides of the
ladder. The X20N, X20W, and X26N have only
one.
The Brake Adjustment/Release Nut(s) is/are
located at the rear of the machine to the right
and/or left of the ladder.

terclockwise until the brakes disengage the
tires.
2. The machine will now roll when pushed or
pulled.
3. To re-engage the brakes, turn the nut(s)
clockwise until the brakes have fully
engaged the tires. Verify that the brakes
have fully engaged the rear tires before
operating the machine by testing their abil-
ity to hold the machine on a 22% grade
(X32N 20%).
