Default Re: Forget to release brake lock

We used to call those, "idiot lights". I have left the parking brake locked on my tractor at least once a year. What helped bring this to an end was to implement my two step system. Step #1, sit in tractor seat. Step #2, release parking brake. This works every time. Before the engine gets started, I have solved the problem.
