Default JMI Wheely Bars

Sorry for this really dumb question, but I've never seen any wheely bars and
want to get some JMI ones for my CGE mount.

1. When you've wheeled the scope into position, how do you keep the rig
stable? Brakes on the wheels?

2. Do wheely bars affect the overall stability of the scope/mount when
stationary? I'll have a C14 on top.

3. I need to traverse some short grass - the wheels are 5" diameter, which
probably sounds ok. Right?

Many thanks in anticipation.

Richard

Sir:

I may be doing it wrong, but I only use the wheels and bar to get my
scope from the car to wherever I planning on setting up, and then I take
the wheels off.
