John. Deere 4300 operation

[butter262]

I have recently inherited a jd4300 hst. I have figured out most of the knobs and levers but the large pedal on the right side above the forward and reverse pedals (there is a large P on the pedal) just escapes me. The parking brake is a hand pull left of the seat an it activates the console light. Pushing the pedal appears to do nothing, it does not move, release, click of anything. What am I missing besides the operators manual.... Have not found that in my brothers house yet.

That is a master brake pedal, that brakes both wheels and kicks off the cruise control magnet. More of an emergency stop, separate from the right and left wheel brake pedals on the left side.

You have the HST model.
