ZD 21 brake lever

[mcoak]

Hi,

Recently the brake lever is locked in the ON position and won't release. Any ideas on how to fix?

Usually mashing the pedal with your foot while pulling back on the handle will make it release. It certainly can be sticky at times.

Turns out the brake handle pivot pin was binding. Gave it a couple of shots of Kroil and all is well.
