Carburettor heat ...................................... AS REQUIRED
Brakes ..................................................... AS REQUIRED. Do not apply continuously.
If required, brakes should be applied periodically: allow the speed to build up to a fast walking pace
then apply brakes to reduce to a slow walking pace. Release the brakes and allow the speed to
gradually build up again. This allows the brakes time to cool down between applications &
minimises wear.
