is 1/16-inch or
less, then the
brake band must
be replaced.

brakes are asbestos free. However, there is the possibility that the original
brakes were replaced with aftermarket parts containing asbestos. Since this possibility exists,
all brake parts should be handled as if they contain asbestos. Refer to Appendix C for
recommended handling precautions.

position, then remove the key.
2. Place the forward-reverse switch in the
