Pull the lever (1) all the way up in order to apply the park brake. The lever pulls the front cable (3).

The front cable (3) pulls the equalizer (4). The equalizer pulls two rear cables. One rear cable runs from the equalizer to each rear wheel. The rear cables pull on the park brake shoe levers in both brake drums. The swivel of the brake shoe lever pushes the trailing brake shoe against the drum. This action prevents the tire and wheel assembly from turning.

Complete the following steps in order to release the park brake:

1. Pull the lever up slightly
2. Push in the release button (5)
3. Lower the lever
