Hi guys,
The slew brake on my 320D isn't working properly, when working on an angle the machine will creep, however when the hydraulic lock-out lever is dropped down so I can get out of the cab, the creeping stops. When the lever is raised, the creeping starts again. Whats going on?

look on the console near your right elbow for a switch that looks (from memory) like a bucket with a left and right arrow under it. Push it. If that doesn't cure it, report back. And if it does cure it, report back anyway. We all like a quick fix.

Same thing happened on my 320D. I hit it by accident cleaning. What is the purpose of that button anyways?
