•With the brake pedal disengaged, insert an .030” feeler gauge between the inner brake pad and the rotor. If the .030” gauge does not fit, the brakes are overly tightened and should be loosened.
•Attempt to insert an .060” feeler gauge between the inner brake pad and the rotor. The .060” clearance is maximum allowable clearance and insertion of the gauge should not be possible.
•If the .060” gauge can be inserted the brake must be tightened.
•Accessing the brake adjustment nut from the rear of the tractor, beneath the fender, turn the nut clockwise to
tighten and counterclockwise to loosen the brake assembly. See Fig- ure 16.
•Turn the adjustment nut as neces- sary to obtain the .030” to .060” clearance.
•Repeat the above procedure to check and adjust the other brake assembly as necessary.
Turning Radius Adjustment
This tractor is equipped with power assisted steering which is set at the factory. The turning radius should be equal for both left and right hand turns. If adjustment is necessary please con- tact your authorized Cub Cadet dealer.
