General
The brake system includes a service brake and a parking brake. Service and
parking brakes are applied through wet disc brake packs located within
axle housing.
Service Brakes
Depressing the service brake pedal causes controlled hydraulic pressure to be
applied to service brakes. The greater the pedal travel, the greater the braking
force.
If power-assist fails, it will require much greater force on pedal to apply brake
and stopping distance will be greater.
Parking Brakes
The parking brakes are spring-applied and hydraulically-released.
Pressure to release parking brakes is provided by the hydraulic system and is
controlled by the parking brake switch located on the dashboard.
With the engine running and the parking brake switch “Off”, parking brakes are
disengaged. Moving the switch to “On” releases hydraulic pressure to apply the
parking brakes. With switch in “On” position, the transmission will not engage
forward or reverse.

WARNING !
If power-assist feature should fail
for any reason, it would require
greater effort to apply service
brake. If power assist fails, stop
as soon as possible. Do not drive
the handler until problem has
been corrected.
WARNING !
Always move parking brake switch
to “On” position before leaving
cab. Never stop engine while
traveling. Parking brake will be
fully-applied and unit could stop
abruptly. A sudden stop could
cause load loss.
WARNING !
Always ensure that transmission
control lever is in neutral before
releasing park brake. Releasing
park brake in either forward or
reverse could cause the machine
to move abruptly.
