Binding Brakes

Will do, I guess I will have to take it apart to find out what is wrong. I was just hoping I could get an idea of what to look for that could be wrong. 

Thanks

David,

I do not know if they are dry or wet brakes. By looking at pictures of equivalent tractors I think they are dry brakes. I haven't looked at it in detail yet so I do not know if there is a spring missing or not. There is definitely a return spring on the right side pedal. When pressing on the left pedal there does not appear to be any brake contact. I can try to adjust and see if I can make it make contact when the pedal is depressed. Basically now though the left pedal just goes all the way down with no effort and just stays there until I pull it up.

Ron,

I have only owned the tractor a couple of months, I have no idea when the brakes were adjusted last. The right pedal feels good though. Just sitting on the seat and pumping the pedal I can hear the brake making contact, and the pedal comes back up. Only problem is when the the tractor is rolling the brake won't release after you step on the pedal, but the pedal does come back up.

I need to make room in my garage so I can dismantle and inspect more closely. Looking at the pictures from Ranch Hand I have a good idea of what is in there now.
