S175 Parking brake solenoid

[aggrov8]

HI i wonder if anyone can help me. I am moving back to the UK at the end of the month and have an S175 with no engine. I need to release the parking brake. i was told i would need to remove the parking brake solenoid. How do i get to this solenoid? Any help or pics would be appreciated. Thanks. Gary

Lift the cab, look at the chain case, there is a cylinder about 3” long that has 3 wires hanging off it, this is the solenoid. Remove 2 bolts and its out. You may need to use a hose clamp to hold the brake off, i'm not sure about that.
If your hydraulics are full of oil still, it won't roll. When the motors are full of oil, it will resist moving.
