Adjusting Toe-In

BRAKE ADJUSTMENT
Foot Brake Adjustment
Whenever the brake pedal travel becomes
excessive, or if the travel of one pedal is unequal to
that of the other, adjustment of each pedal should
be made in the following manner
1. Loosen the lock-nut, Figure 65, and rotate the
brake rod as necessary until there is 1-3/8-1-
3/4 inch (35-45mm) of pedal free play.
Lengthening the rod increases free play while
shortening the rod decreases free play.
2 .Test drive the tractor to make sure the
braking action of both rear wheels is equal.
Readjust as necessary.
Figure 65 - Brake Pedal Adjustment
Parking Brake Adjustment
If the parking brake lever travel becomes excessive
or the parking brake efficiency is reduced, adjust the
parking brake, as follows:
1. Check and if necessary, adjust the foot
brakes, as previously described.
2. Release the parking brake lever, Figure 65A.
Slacken the locknut and turn the adjusting nut
so that both rear wheels are locked when the
parking brake lever is applied 3-4 notches on
the ratchet.
3. Ensure the rear wheels turn freely with the
parking brake lever released.
4. Tighten the locknut without disturbing the
adjusting nut.
IMPORTANT: Check the brake cables for corrosion,
fraying or kinks. Ensure both inner cables move
freely in the outer cables and are lubricated with a
high quality grease. Replace any unserviceable
cables.
