driver seat back as far as possible.
2. Place BRK 2010 Patriot® on the fl oor.

Note: The easiest way is to place the bottom of the claw
under the pedal fi rst, then slide the top of the claw over
the top of the pedal.

rubber boots may be removed to expose the grippers on
the feet.

to the unit.
5. Slide the driver’s seat forward to touch push pads.
Adjust the push-pad up or down for proper height
position in relation to the seat.
Note: Seat must be as far forward as possible without
causing the brake lights to be activated. If the seat
can’t be moved forward far enough, an arm extension is
available. (see page 13)
Note: If using a breakaway, it must be connected before
turning on the unit.

12 volt power. Indicator light will glow.

initializing.
8. When the display reads “Position Arm Then Press
Setup,” press the JOG switch to push slightly on the brake
pedal. (Fig. 3) The brake pedal should be depressed as
far as possible WITHOUT activating the brake lights.
9. Push the “SETUP” button.
The brake will stroke 3 (three) times then remain in the
ready position.
Note: If the brake extends fully and remains extended
without stroking three times, the seat is not far enough

seat as far forward as possible without causing the brake
lights to be activated then continue with Step 8.
