Now, when piling loads, the driver of a Ross Fork Truck can hold the truck right where he wants it even on a grade. Automatic Brake Lock... another advanced-engineering feature of Ross Fork Trucks. .leaves the driver free to manipulate the load. Result? Faster piling, safer piling and neat, square piles... even on rough ground.

Here's how the Ross Automatic Brake Lock works: As the truck approaches.the pile, the driver flips an electric switch. rWhen truck is in desired position, he applies the foot brakes as usual. The brakes lock automatically. and stay locked, when he removes his foot from the brake pedal. This leaves him free to concentrate his attention on hoisting and tilting operations because the truck cannot creep forward or backward. lWhen ready to back away from the pile, he again flips the electric switch, unlocking the brakes and returning them to normal foot-pedal operation.
