Can anyone tell me how to set the parking brake? I can’t figure it out there seems to be a lever on the hand brake but there is no way to engage it into anything. Don’t know if maybe something is missing. Any help would be appreciated.

Any every replace or work on the parking pawl. Believe mine either got broke or worn out not working any more .
I've already took the linkage loose at the loose at rear differential and moved it by hand and can feel the pawl lever cam working but it does not engage the parking pawl. And yes it rolls freely while in park with no noise from differential like something is broke. Vinson runs just fine but no Park -

Went winter rid'in last Saturday, the 18th. It rained like a SOB all nite & it was still rain'in to beat the band when I left the house at 0500 for the ride (Yeah, I like to leave early). :coffee:
It was 31 degs F when I unloaded the bike, and Yup, it was snow'in ... it was just try'in at first but later on, it was do'in pretty good. :woot:
I tried to get off on the snow a couple times, but it was soft & deep & I didn't feel like digg'in or winch'in ... so I turned around to ride at a lower elevation (7000 ft instead of the 9000 ft where I was) ... and the bike was clean up to that point .... sigh .... and I was also dry !!
Yes, my expensive rain suit bibs leaked !! I'll bet I don't have a dozen rides with these & they leak. I think it must be from the rubbing of the material (Gore-Tex) on the seat while riding !!?? :wiggle:
So I stuff a sweat shirt in my bibs (probably looked like I was carry'in a load, if ya know what I mean !! :smilielol5c: ) ... and I rode another 15 miles. At that point I stopped at a Forest Service shack that had an overhang porch, had some lunch, & put my other rain pants on underneath the bibs ... and rode another 30 miles. But I'm pissed !!
Here's some photo's .... :seeyac:

Ok, I dug around on here but to no avail. A newbie here so be gentle.
My 01 Kodiak 400, (bought new and fluids seem good) automatic, will slip/jerk if in park on a slope. Shifts and drives fine all the time but just not strong on the parking. So, nothing I cant live with for now but...will it harm anything if I delay repairs? Is it something that can be repaired without it looking like a titanic overhaul and is it typically a high dollar thing?
Thank you much in advance!!

My question is: if the 1997 Kodiak 400 has a parking brake, where is it and how do I set it?
Thanks for your time.
