Shut–Down Operating Instructions SHUT–DOWN Always use your parking brakes! WARNING! Do not use the trailer hand brake or service brakes to park and hold an unattended vehicle—use the parking brakes. Because service brakes work with air pressure, these brakes could slowly release. Your vehicle could roll, causing a serious accident. Someone could be hurt or killed. Never rely on the service brakes to hold a parked vehicle. Introduction After you have parked in a safe place, check your vehicle to make sure it will be ready for the next trip. To make sure your vehicle is ready to go after a long stop (such as overnight), please follow the suggestions below. Your vehicle will be easier to get going when you are ready, and it will be safer for everyone who might be around it. 2. If you must park on a steep grade, always block the wheels. Please remember, too, that in some states it is illegal to leave the engine running and the vehicle unattended. Final Stopping Procedures 1. Set the parking brake before leaving the driver’s seat.
