When the retarder is actuated, the rear brake pilot lamp lights up. For details, see “12.6 TRAVELING DOWNHILL”. When leaving the operator’s seat, always apply the parking brake. 7. DIFFERENTIAL LOCK PEDAL This is used to actuate the differential lock control. When the pedal is depressed, the differential lock is actuated, and when it is released, the differential lock is canceled. For details, see “31.
