Folks -

On my 4600, I sometimes use my alternate rear-wheel braking pedals to make better turns. I was doing some turning in the snow the other evening and noticed that the right rear wheel - the one that locks when I put on the parking brake was still spinning and not locking. But the left would... when I got out of the snow on the driveway and tried it again, it worked as it should. Is this normal behavior or just a wierd circumstance because I was in the snow, it might have been cold, or I was just seeing things... /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

I figured I'd ask - it would be interesting to understand how the braking mechanisms work on the unit (4600) - oh well. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Thanks!
