Thanks,

As always seems to be the case, I find the answer just after I post. I had been searching beforehand for a couple of hours, posted my question, then found the answer myself, right here on TMforums.

However, I left it in case some one else had some more experience using the brakes. It is already wired with two switches, so I presume the other one is for the brake. This leads me to wonder if a DPDT switch might be useful here. Wire P1 from power to the Powermover motor and P2 to the brake. Except, T1-Powermover would be open, T2-Powermover would be connected to the motor. T1-brake circuit would be connected to the brake, T2-brake would be open. This way, as soon as you turn the Powermover "off", the brake automatically turns on.

Or...

I can just darn well learn to coordinate my thumbs!
