Parking Brake Lever Lock
Your snowmobile may have a parking brake lever lock located over the
brake lever. Use the parking brake lever lock only when you want the
machine to remain stationary; for example, when parked on an incline
for a period of five minutes or less.

Lock Engagement
To engage the lock, squeeze the brake lever tightly and push forward
on the lock. Hold the lock forward while releasing the brake lever.
NOTE: If the brake handle is squeezed tightly enough, the lock will move
freely into place. Do not force the lock or it may break.
The brake light on the console will light up when the parking brake
lever lock is set and the engine is running. It will also be lit when the
service brake is in use. If the parking brake light does not come on
when the parking brake or service brake is in use, have it serviced by
your dealer.
Lock Release
To release the lock, squeeze the brake lever tightly and release it. The
lock will return to the unlocked position.
WARNING
If the parking brake lever lock is partially or entirely engaged while riding,
the brakes may overheat, resulting in brake damage. In extreme cases it
could cause a fire, which could result in serious injury or death. Always
ensure that the lever lock is completely disengaged before operating the
snowmobile.
