MANUAL BRAKE HAND PUMP MANIFOLD
The hand brake is located under the engine. The hand brake is con-
nected to he seat switch and automatically engages when operator
gets up from the seat. So when machine is not being driven, the ma-
chine is locked down. If engine is not running or you are towing the
machine you will have to manually release the brake. To manually
release the brake you must loosen the locknut and screw in the
stem to the bottom. Tighten the lock nut and pump handle until hard.
Run machine at half-throttle minimum, prior to operating
tration pedal. This will ensure proper brake release.
