BRAKE PEDAL ADJUSTMENT

Service Specifications

Brake Pedal Check and Adjustment Interval… Every 50 hours or yearly Free Pedal Movement Specification… 40 to 50mm (1.57 to 1.97inch) at the brake pedal. With this free movement is obtained, tighten the lock nut.

Brake pedal free movement is very important and must be checked at the recommended intervals. If there is no free movement, the brake disks will wear quickly.

If there is too much free movement, accidents may occur. If there is not the same free movement between LH pedal and RH pedal, it may cause serious accidents.

Put the tractor on level ground, move the range lever in the L position. Stop the engine.

Loosen lock nut and rotate the brake rod to make a free play of 40 to 50 mm (1.57 to 1.97 inch.)

Confirm that the right and left brakes operate simultaneously by running the tractor. If not, adjust both of them by means of the brake rods.

Raise Stop Setting Position

If raise stop setting position is incorrect, the hydraulic pump might be damaged. Therefore carefully adjust as below.

Liftarm

1. Disconnect an implement from the hitch. (See Disconnecting Implement from Hitch in this manual.)

2. Disconnect LH and RH lifts rods from the lift arms.

3. Start the engine.

4. Move the hitch control lever rearward to raise the lift arm to the maximum lifting position.

5. With the arm so raised, stop the engine.

6. Check a free play of the lift arm to be 5 to 10 mm at the top of the lift arm by hands.

7. If the free play is insufficient, move the raise stop forward and check again with the same procedure as before.
