Parking brake
When the parking brake is on, it secures the uncoupled machine
against unintentional rolling. The parking brake is operated by turning
the crank , which in turn operates the spindle and bowden cable.

Correct the setting of the parking brake if the spindle's tension is
no longer sufficient.
Ensure that the bowden cable is not lying or rubbing against
other vehicle parts.
When the parking brake is off, the bowden cable must be slightly
slack.
