Recommended Posts

Another problem with my wheel horse b60 the brake band seems to be touching the brake drum when i push the tractor forward. When i started to ride it the whole tractor came to a stop. adjusting the nut seemed to have to effect.

Unless there is a problem such as the brake lining coming loose from the brake band, or a foreign object in the brake, you should have enough adjustment in the nut and/or the trunnion to adjust the brake pedal to a comfortable position, have proper braking with no drag, and be able to lock the parking brake.

It ended up being that the brake band was broken.
