A method of controlling an electric drivetrain of a work machine, the method including determining whether a brake pedal actuation has occurred with an actuation distance greater than an actuation distance threshold value for an actuation duration longer than an actuation duration threshold value. The method further includes determining whether no drive torque maintaining condition exists, based on a determination that the brake pedal actuation occurred with the actuation distance greater than the actuation distance threshold value for the actuation duration longer than the actuation duration threshold value. The method further includes generating a control signal for the electric drivetrain to disable a torque generation by the electric drivetrain based on a determination that no drive torque maintaining condition exists.
