Check Parking Brake and Blocking Valve
Check the parking brake and blocking valve holding power
by engaging direct gear, not allowing the engine speed
to go above 1000 rpm and attempt to drive off with the
parking brake still applied. The parking brake should hold
the vehicle stationary while letting the clutch up slowly.
Release the parking brake and start driving. Check that
the parking brakes are released quickly and that no
braked drag can be felt.
