Typically, forklifts feature two brake pedals: a service brake and a parking brake. When the forklift is moving, the service brake pedal is utilized to reduce speed or come to a complete stop. This brake uses the hydraulic system of the forklift to provide pressure to the brake shoes or pads, slowing or stopping the vehicle. The service brake pedal functions similarly to the brake pedal on an automobile and is typically situated to the left of the accelerator pedal. On the other side, the forklift is kept in place while it is parked by the parking brake pedal. The forklift is held stationary by this mechanical brake, which operates independently of the hydraulic system and makes use of a different set of brake shoes or pads. To aid prevent unintentional activation while driving, the parking brake pedal is often placed to the right of the accelerator pedal and is frequently distinguished by its vivid colour or distinctive form. Forklift operators can control each brake independently when the service and parking brakes are on different pedals, which can increase safety and lower the likelihood of accidents. The operator can use the parking brake to stop the forklift without mistakenly using the service brake, which could put extra strain on the brake shoes or pads.

It if false that is the service brakes fail to apply the parking brake in one motion. It should pumped.
You should apply your parking brake whenever you park your vehicle to prevent it from rolling, especially on inclines. This practice helps secure the vehicle in place and reduces strain on the transmission. Additionally, it's important to engage the parking brake before leaving the vehicle to ensure safety and stability. Always remember to disengage it before driving off.
When parking a forklift, the required steps include lowering the forks to the ground to ensure stability, engaging the parking brake to prevent any movement, and turning off the ignition to cut power to the machine. It's also important to place the forklift in a designated parking area away from pedestrian traffic and ensure that it is clear of any hazards. Lastly, if applicable, secure the forklift with wheel chocks for additional safety.
You will wear out the brakes prematurely and you may also overheat the brakes and experience brake fade (no or poor brakes).
