The Cats we used only had brakes on the driven wheels, not on the rear and the wheels weighed about 3cwt each with tyres.
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

^What Calvin says. I've driven lots of forks for many years and there's usually a flap cut in the rubber flooring and it'll be under
that.

Spent a good long time working on fork lifts a while ago, mailnly Jungheinrich, Yale and Boss though. Been off the tools for about 8 years though
now.
If its an electric truck the braking system is normally standard master cylinder and drum brakes. Nothing special about them.
If its an engine truck with torque convertor drive there will usually be a feed from the master cylinder going into the transmission. This will feed
what is called an inching valve. Basically it will use brake pressure to cut drive to the transmission so you cant try to drive with the brakes
applied. As soon as you release the brakes, pressure is lost and drive is resumed.
Whats the problem ?
John.

cyl,think maybe it runs from hydraulic pressure from trans?
