ABSTRACT:
A brake release mechanism, particularly for machines having a hydrostatic transmission, such as a tractor. The brake latching member includes a rotational latch pin receivable within a ratchet slot or the like in the brake lever to releasably hold the lever in the brake position. The latching member is connected to the transmission control arm by two cables. Each cable is connected at one end to a lever on the transmission control lever and the opposed cable ends are connected by lost motion links to the latching member, on opposed sides of the latch pin, such that rotation of the transmission control lever either direction from neutral will rotate the latch pin out of ratchet engagement with the brake lever and automatically release the brake upon actuation of the hydrostatic transmission into forward or reverse.
