Drive Lever/Neutral Lock/Park Brake Latch Operation
•For Pistol Grip Handles
To lock the drive levers in “neutral”, squeeze the drive levers back to the neutral position. Place thumbs on the upper portion of the neutral lock/park brake latches and move them to the rear. Release the drive levers.
To lock the levers in “park brake”, squeeze the drive levers back to the brake position. Place thumbs on the upper portion of the neutral lock/park brake latches and move them to the front. Release the drive levers (see Figure 6)
CAUTION
If the neutral lock/park brake latches are not completely engaged the drive levers could unexpectedly slip into the forward drive position. If the drive levers slip into the drive position, the unit could lurch forward and cause injury or property damage.
Be sure the pins protruding through the slots of each neutral lock latch are completely engaged in the rear slot of each latch.
To place the drive levers in the drive position, firmly hold the drive levers, place thumbs on the upper portion of the neutral lock/park brake latches and move them out of the “neutral” or the “park brake” position. Slowly and smoothly release the drive levers.
