ADJUSTING THE BRAKES
A CAUTION
On the 1806 tractor the clutch must be
adjusted before the brakes can be adjusted.
With the brake pedal disengaged, remove the clevis
pinned end of one of the brake rod assemblies from
the jackshaft assembly by removing the cotter pin from
the clevis pin. (See Figure 25.)
Brake adjustment:
During normal operation of this machine, the brakes
are subject to wear and will require periodic examina¬
tion and adjustment.
Brake adjustment check:
1. To check brake adjustment, place a 1/2 inch
thick wood block between the single brake
pedal and the brake pedal lock (see Figure 24.)
2. With the 1/2 inch thick wood block installed, the
brake disc pads should be applying a light
amount of friction against the brake disc rotor. If
they are not, the brakes need adjustment.
