The parking brake assembly is bolted to the front of the center axle. The parking brake is spring
engaged and hydraulically released. Heavy springs on the outside of the brake pads (7) force the
pads inward, clamping the pads against disc (8) to keep the parking brake engaged. The rotor is
mechanically connected to the drive shaft. When engaged, the parking brake holds the truck
stationary by preventing rotation of the drive shaft.

the transmission control (1) is moved from the PARK position, the parking brake solenoid is
energized by the transmission ECM. The solenoid valve then directs oil into parking brake actuator
(3), pressurizing the chamber behind the actuator piston and moving the actuator outward. As the
piston moves outward, the piston compresses an internal bias spring and moves actuator rod (4)
outward, rotating brake lever (5) counterclockwise. As brake lever (5) rotates, the lever moves the
brake pads away from the parking brake rotor to release the brake.

When the transmission control (1) is moved back to the PARK position, the parking brake solenoid
is de-energized, which drains the oil behind the actuator piston. As the piston chamber is de-
pressurized, the actuator bias spring pulls actuator rod (4) inward and brake pads clamp (7) against
disc (8) to engage the brake.

Note: The emergency brake is activated by emergency brake switch (2).
