m. Brake System. The brake system (fig 2-15 through 2-18) includes the hand-
brake and the service brakes. The compressed air system is covered here since it is
part of the brake system.
(1) The handbrake system (fig. 2-15) is made up of a handbrake lever and
cable, a brakedrum and brake shoes. The drum and brakeshoes are mounted on the
rear output shaft of the transfer. The handbrake lever is located inside the cab at
the left of the drivers seat, When the handbrake lever is pulled up, the cable is
tightened which makes the brakeshoes clamp the brakedrum and lock the rear output
shaft. When the handbrake lever is pushed down, the brakeshoes let go and unlock
the rear output shaft.
