Thanks all for the replies.
I think I have the older model, have to look in the AC. I haven't
fabricated a linkage for it, have just been using the lever.
It seems that some hard landings can move the lever and give surprise
braking.
It looks like the new one allows the lever to be moved around. The
reason for my not putting on a proper linkage
is that the lever was moving opposite to a convenient cable hook up,
I.E. would require a pull to release the brakes.
I think that the next project is to put on the new valve and a cable.
thanks again
regards Jim Bean

Use a locking or ratcheting cable so vibration doesn't move it. Put it
on your side of the cabin so mate doesn't think it's for heat. You can
use the outer cable as the stop on one end and set the other end to be
brakes released when the knob is full forward.
