ABSTRACT:
A brake notification device for notifying an individual whether the brake system is active or inactive includes a housing including a flexible conduit having opposed end portions removably connected thereto and to a pneumatically controlled valve of the vehicle brake system. Such a housing selectively receives air under first and second pressure levels for selectively adapting between active and inactive modes respectively. The conduit has a sufficient length for extending between front and rear portions of the vehicle and the housing is adjustably mountable adjacent to a rear portion of the vehicle, and preferably inside the vehicle, at a selected height so a forklift operator can readily identify whether the vehicle brake system is active or inactive.
