Perhaps this this is the answer:
(from the 122 manual)
   "The Tremolo control's circuitry makes no provision for stopping
the Treble and Bass rotors. Complete braking is unnecessary in normal
use, since the slow movement of the rotors at Chorale speed provides a
pleasant effect when playing sustained chords and is virtually
imperceptible during rapid musical passages.
   If you desire to stop the rotors completely, a 034256 accessory
brake may be installed. Complete installation instructions are
provided with the brake kit. Available through your Leslie speaker
dealer."
