Komatsu — PARKING BRAKE

OPERATION BRAKES, PARKING BRAKE, ACCELERATOR AND THROTTLE CONTROL BRAKE PEDALS The machine is equipped with a tandem brake pedal set-up. This set-up makes to possible to separate the right and left braking system for mak- ing sharp tight turns right or left in close working conditions. During normal operation or when traveling on roads the brake pedals (2) should be locked to allow for equal braking at each wheel. When operating at slow speeds in tight locations the brake pedals (2) can be separated to allow independent braking at the right or left wheel . When operating with the brakes separated or unlocked: Always operate at a slow speed no higher than 1st gear.

Never operate the machine at high speeds with the ped- als unlocked. Once you are finished with your operations, always re- lock the brake pedals immediately for safety purposes. Failure to comply with this warning may result in serious injury. PARKING BRAKE When exiting the cab it is important that the parking brake be applied. To set the parking brake, bring the machine to a full stop, grasp the brake handle firmly and squeeze the lock lever below the brake handle, pull up on the handle until the brake handle locks in place, then release the lock lever. The brake set indicator will come on indicating the brake is set.

Remark Leaving the machine in gear with the engine off and the directional control set in the forward or reverse position will not hold the machine in place, the parking brake must be used. Always park the machine in neutral. WB140-2N, WB150-2N 2-19
