Casters and Wheel Locks
The Shuttle is equipped with a central Lock/Steer
mechanism. The wheel locks have three positions:
steer, neutral and brake. The levers for operation are
located at the rear of the Shuttle. The pictures show
the A Series brake pedals.
Steer
Either pedal will engage the rear casters in steer position. Position the wheel
lock lever in the up position.
Neutral
This position is used to move the Shuttle freely. Position the wheel lock lever
in the middle position. This allows al six casters/wheels to maneuver freely.
Brake
This position is used to lock the two rear casters/wheels (no movement
allowed). Position the wheel lock lever in the down position.
CAUTION:
DO NOT attempt to use the caster locks to stop the Shuttle while in
motion. The locks are not designed to be braking devices.
