Verify Proper Operation Of Park Brakes

Park Brakes must be verified for proper operation after each secondary brake use. Perform the following steps to verify proper operation.

1. Stop fully loaded machine on a 20 degree slope or steepest grade available that the machine will be parked on with rear of machine up-hill. Press secondary brake switch.

2. If machine rolls or “creeps”, (see your John Deere dealer for servicing/replacement of brake discs).

3. If machine remains parked, internal hub brake discs are acceptable and do not need servicing.
