...with the flip of a lever in the cab while pressing on the brakes... the mico lock maintains the hydraulic pressure until the lever is reversed. If you have separate front & rear hydraulic systems then you can choose... front only, rear only, or both for 4 wheel lock. Used by most tow truck and utility companies doing work on inclines. I have it in my B-4-PW and can't see going without it! My manual e-brake is disconnected, evidantly it proved of little value with a 300 gallon water tank and 6 Firemen on the Brushtruck back in it's "hay day". Now the tank and FireFighters are gone... but the Mico remains :)
