BRAKES AND TIRES
SERVICE BRAKES
The mechanical service brakes are located on the
front wheels. The brakes are operated by the foot
brake pedal and connecting cables.
Check the brake adjustment every 200 hours of
operation. The brake pedal should not travel more
than 25 mm (1 in) to fully engage the brakes.
PARKING BRAKE
The parking brake is set with the parking brake
lever that activates the service brakes.
Adjust the parking brake whenever it becomes
very easy to set the parking brake, when the
machine rolls after setting the parking brake, and
every 200 hours of operation. The parking brake
may be tightened by turning the knurled knob on
the end of the parking brake clockwise.
TIRES
All the tires on the machine tires are solid. The
tires should be inspected for wear and damage
every 100 hours of operation.
REAR WHEEL
If replacing the rear wheel, torque the rear wheel
nuts in a star pattern to 122 to 150 Nm
(90 to 110 ft lb).
PUSHING OR TOWING MACHINE
You can push the machine from the front or rear,
and tow it only from the rear with a dolly placed
under the rear wheel.
ATTENTION! Do not push or tow the
machine without placing the rear wheel
on a dolly or the machine propelling
system may be damaged.
