7 - PARKING BRAKE
WARNING
q
The parking brake must be applied whenever the opera-
tor leaves the driving position, even if for a short time.
q
The machine must be positioned with the wheels resting
firmly on the ground. If one of the wheels is unstable or
is resting on a small obstacle, the machine may move.
q
Periodically check the functionality of the parking brake.
Failure to comply with these instructions may lead to
serious accidents or even death.
q
In case of failure of the hydraulic system, before the re-
covery of the machine release the negative brake in-
stalled on the travel hydraulic motors (see "4.8.1.d
RELEASING THE PARKING BRAKE").
The braking action is obtained by pressing the switch (1) (LED
ON); the release is obtained by pressing the switch again
(LED OFF).
IMPORTANT
q
The parking brake is automatically engaged whenever
the engine stops; this is due to the lack of pressure in
the hydraulic system.
q
Every time the engine is started or restarted, it is neces-
sary to release the parking brake before moving the ma-
chine.
