Parking Brake Adjustment 1. Disengage the PTO, stop the engine, engage
the parking brake, and remove the key from the
ignition.
2. Raise the seat plate to gain access to the parking
brake components.
3. Measure the distance from the top of the brake
spring rod (C, Figure 34) to the top of the lock nut
(D) on both sides of the unit. The measurement
should be .50” (1,27 cm). If not, adjust the locknut
to achieve the measurement of .50” (1,27 cm)
4. Measure the distance between the bottom of the
brake shaft weldment (G) and the top of the set
collar (F). The measurement should be .375”
(0,95 cm). If not, position the set collar until the
measurement equals .375” (0,95 cm).
If this does not correct the braking problem, see
your dealer.
