2. Release the rear brakes (See below procedure)
3.
ENSURE
the drive lever is in the neutral position (See page 39)
RELEASING THE REAR BRAKES
1.
ENSURE
the dumper is on stable, level ground (see page 39)
2. Place chocks in front and behind all tyres of the dumper to prevent any unwanted movement.
3. Remove the brake release plates (Figure 24, Item A) from their storage position and keep hold of the bolts (Item B).
4. Remove the rubber caps (Item C) from the rear wheel motors (Item D).
5. Place the plates onto the end of the motors.
