WARNING:
 To prevent accidents due to running away of the
machine, after parking the machine or before
leaving the machine, be sure to apply the parking
brake.
 Never apply the parking brake while traveling the
machine.
 Apply the parking brake only after the machine has
stopped.
 Failure to do so may cause sudden deceleration
of the machine travel speed, possibly creating a
dangerous situation. Also, premature wear and/or
damage to the parking brake may result. After the
parking brake has been applied in an emergency
while traveling the machine, have the parking brake
checked at your authorized dealer.
When parking brake switch (1) is turned ON, the parking brake
is applied; parking brake indicator (2) will be lit.
Press the OFF side of parking brake switch (1) to release the
parking brake. Check that parking brake indicator (2) goes OFF
by pressing the switch twice with clicks.

NOTE:
 The parking brake is released by hydraulic pressure only
when the engine is running.
 To ensure safe operation, when the parking brake is
applied, even though the forward/reverse lever is moved
to forward (F) or reverse (R) position, the machine does not
travel.
 To ensure safe operation, when the engine is stopped, the
parking brake is applied even if parking brake switch (1) is
in the OFF position.
Before restarting the engine, ensure the forward/reverse
lever and forward/reverse switch (3) are in "Neutral"
position, and forward/reverse selector switch (4) is in OFF
position for safety, and parking brake switch (1) is turned
ON.
 The parking brake will apply when the key is turned OFF.
