Servicing the Brake

Always set the parking brake when you stop the machine
or leave it unattended. If the parking brake does not hold
securely, an adjustment is required.
Checking the Brake
1. Park the machine on a level surface, disengage the
power take off (PTO), set the parking brake, and turn
the ignition key to off. Remove the ignition key.
2. Rear wheels must lock and skid when you try to push
the tractor forward. Adjustment is required if the
wheels turn and do not lock; refer to Adjusting the
Brake, page 25.

the brake adjusting nut slightly (Fig. 28).
4. Carefully insert a 0.015 in. (.38 mm) feeler gauge
between the outer brake pad and rotor disk (Fig. 28).

is felt on the feeler gauge when sliding it in and out.
