Meh..... it's close to the same time. All the linkage is tied together. It starts moving the brake lever as soon as you press on the pedal. It starts moving the dash lever when the rod contacts the cam plate. They work at about the same time. Personally I'd rather they had put a disconnect clutch and integrated brake for the pedal. That way, it kills the hydro altogether and sets the brake. Plus, aids starting. I've thought about converting mine.... but I'm too lazy, lol. Plus, I seldom use the brake pedal. I use it a lot more blowing snow because I run out of hands to operate with.
