PARKING BRAKE
This vehicle is equipped with an automatic parking
brake; when the vehicle is stopped the parking brake is
automatically set. The parking brake is released when
the key switch/direction selector is in forward (’F’) or re-
verse (’R’) and the accelerator is depressed. The park-
ing brake is also released when the run/tow switch is
placed in the ’TOW’ or (on European Models) posi-
tion with the key switch turned to neutral (’N’).
In the event that the vehicle will not move in forward or
reverse, the parking brake can be released using the in-
structions located on the controller splash shield be-
neath the seat on the passenger side of the vehicle. To
move the vehicle, turn the key switch to ’N’, flip the
RUN-TOW switch to the ’TOW’ position, move the vehi-
cle to a safe location on level ground, chock the tires,
and turn the key to ’OFF’.
In case of total power loss and the RUN-TOW switch
does not release the parking brake the instructions be-
low the controller splash shield must
be used. Chock the tires to prevent
the vehicle moving when the brake is
released.
To access the instructions remove
three re-usable plastic rivets securing
the controller splash shield to the body
and the controller. To remove the re-
usable rivets, press the center of the
rivet with the vehicle key. When the
center pin snaps into place the rivet can
be removed. Repeat the process for each
remaining rivet. Turn the splash shield
over to reveal the instructions for releas-
ing the parking brake.
THIS PROCEDURE SHOULD ONLY BE PER-
FORMED BY QUALIFIED TRAINED PER-
SONNEL.
Make sure that the key is in the ’OFF’ position and the
tires are chocked to prevent the vehicle moving; then
perform the following:
1. Locate the ’Auxiliary Power’ line (3) and remove the
weather pack seal (4) from the connector.
2. Locate the ’Primary Power’ line connector (1) and dis-
connect it from line (2).
3. Connect the ’Auxiliary Power’ line (3) to the ’Primary
Power’ line (1) which will release the brake. If the tires
are not chocked and the vehicle is not on flat ground
the vehicle will move immediately.
4. Move the vehicle to desired, safe location and chock
the tires immediately.
5. Disconnect the ’Auxiliary Power’ line (3) from the ’Pri-
mary Power’ line (1).
6. Connect the ’Primary Power’ line (1) to line (2).
7. Replace the weather pack seal (4) on the ’Auxiliary
Power’ line connector (3).

splash shield and push down on the
center pin until the top of the pin is flush with the rivet
head.
