The TimeCutter Z is equipped with a cog type
parking brake. When the lever is moved to the
“on” position, the brake linkage pivots the brake
arm engaging the parking brake cog and locking
the brake shaft.
IMPORTANT: Never attempt to engage the
parking brake when the unit is moving.
When the park brake is disengaged, there
must be clearance between the brake arm
and the brake cog, or severe damage could
occur to the transaxle.

When the parking brake is released, the brake
arm pivots away from the brake cog allowing the
brake shaft to turn.
The brake arm is held in place by spring tension.
The nut at the bottom of the spring should have
approximately two threads showing.
NOTE: Do not attempt to adjust the parking
brake by turning this nut.
