First, I have to admit I seldom use my brakes on my machine. When I do it's the full width brake pedal next to the accelerator pedals for my HST. I recently discovered that my right side brake pedal does nothing but go to the floor. I believe that's why I'm getting alerted from my park brake indicator light on the dash.

Any thoughts as to what might cause this right side pedal to be out of service and how to fix it? Thanks. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

sounds like it needs adjusted to me, they can be a little tricky to get just right. If you need one I have a service manual for 4200 to 4400 that I do not need any more.

If Gary doesn't need the service manual for the 4200, I sure could use it. Please let me know.....

That service manual could be exactly what I need. /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif I just sent you a PM. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Thanks so much for the generous offer. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
