Komatsu — 3.2.3 Control levers, pedals

3.2 Explanation of components Operation 4. Brake pedal z When traveling downhill, always use the right brake pedal, and use the braking force of the engine together with the brake. z Do not use the brake pedal excessively. If the brake is used too frequently, the brake will overheat. If this hap- pens, the brakes will not work and may lead to a serious accident. z Do not put your foot on the brake pedal unless neces- sary. These pedals (4) operate the brakes. Use the brake pedal for normal braking operations. The left and right pedals are interconnected and work together.

REMARK When using the brake pedal and accelerator pedal together to reduce the travel speed or stop the machine when carry- ing out the operation, it is more convenient to use the left brake pedal.
