Brake
The brake is on the right side of the rear axle, inside
the rear tire (Fig. 24). 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 blade control (PTO) and turn the ignition key
to "OFF" to stop the engine.
2.
Move the drive control wire to the "PUSH"
position; refer to Pushing the Machine by Hand,
page 15.
3.
If the rear wheels lock and skid when you push
the tractor forward, no adjustment is required.
An adjustment is required if the wheels turn and
do not lock; refer to Adjusting the Brake,
page 23.
Adjusting the Brake
(0.020" (5.08 mm) feeler gauge required)
1.
Check the brake before you adjust it; refer to
Checking the Brake, page 23.
2.
Release the parking brake; refer to Releasing the
Parking Brake, page 10.
3.
To adjust the brake remove the cotter pin and
loosen the brake adjusting nut slightly (Fig. 24).
4.
Carefully insert a 0.020" (5.08 mm) feeler gauge
between the two outer brake pads (Fig. 24).
5.
Tighten the brake adjusting nut until slight
resistance is felt on the feeler gauge when sliding
it in and out. Install cotter pin.
6.
Check the brake operation again; refer to
Checking the Brake, page 23.
IMPORTANT: With the parking brake
released, the rear wheels must rotate freely
when you push the mower. If the 0.020"
(5.08 mm) clearance and free wheel rotation
cannot be achieved contact your service
dealer immediately.
