how to move

our raymond reach truck has died. it is a 1996 model. the circuit boards are fried. this is our only truck. we will buy something to replace it. but it only will have a capacity of around 3000 lbs. this thing weighs close to 6000 lbs. how do we get this thing out of our warehouse? is there a way to manually release the brake so we can push it?

Stepping on the deadman pedal will release the brake. You will have to strong arm the steering if your gonna push it.
