Homemade parking brake handle
 

Here's a picture of the parking brake handle I made for my 1200. Similar to one on my 1211. It's come in very handy!

Cool! I was just thinking about this the other day when I was looking at the 782. Can you release the brake with your heel? :beerchug:

Well, never tried. I reach down and lock it with my hand. Works pretty good!

I like that idea.
Never thought about modifying that piece.
Nice work bocephus1991 :ThumbsUp:

Thanks! Got the idea from my 1211. It's made from a metal bracket I got from work. I got a hand full of them, so didn't cost me anything but time. Hardest part was drilling and tapping the small bolt hole in the end. It's very handy, a lot better than the factory design.

That's a great idea, I wanted to do that on the 1863 and 1811 just for convenience.

I'd think your 1811 would have one. My 1211 does, that's where the idea came from. Works good though! Maybe Jeff needs to start making some?!
