BRAKE FREE-PLAY ADJUSTMENT
FIG. 150 & 151:
Unlatch the pedals and check free-play
of each brake pedal. Correct free-play A of each indi-
vidual brake pedal is 40 to 50 mm (1-9 / 16 to 1-15 / 16”).
NOTE: • Through use, free-play will increase and
brake balance will be affected. Adjust and
balance brakes before free-play is excessive.
• Hydrostatic transmission type do not have
individual wheel brakes.
FIG. 152:
Loosen the lock nut (1) and lock nut (2). Adjust
the rod using weld nut (3) so free-play is correct for re-
spective brake pedal.
Repeat procedure for other brake so free-play in pedals
is equal. Secure lock nuts against clevis.
When adjustment is complete, latch the pedals together
and operate the tractor at low speed. Depress the ped-
als. If the tractor has tendency to “pull” to left or right
side, readjust the free-play evenly between left and right
side.
Make sure the lock nuts are secured when brake adjust-
ment is complete.
