If your model is equipped with the park brake lever lock, use the 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.
1. Brake Lever
2. Park Brake Lever Lock (if
equipped)
3. Master Cylinder Reservoir/
Cover
4. Fluid Level Indicator
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 lever 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 if the park brake lever lock
is set while the engine is running. It will also be lit when the service
brake is in use. If the park brake light does not come on when the park
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 unlock position.
WARNING
If the park 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.
