Testing the Park Brake

TCAL43475-UN-21MAR13

1. Stop machine on a 17° slope (30% grade). Stop the engine and lock the park brake.

Result: Park brake must hold the machine stationary. (Machine should move no more than 61cm (24 in.) in one hour.) If machine moves more than that, brakes need to be adjusted. See your John Deere Dealer or refer to Adjusting Park Brake in the Service Steering and Brakes section.
