- In this video I show you how to service, maintain and clean the brakes in a ride on mower / lawn tractor. Lawn mower brake fix, adjustment and service SUBSCRIBE - goo.gl/4aGnGF
Thank you. This is a breath air after watching a number of American videos. No pointless waffle, just straight, logical and ordered instructions from someone who actually knows what he is doing. The one I watched prior to this referred to the nuts as screws...alarm bells!
You are the first person I saw that actually mentioned that the rotor needs to move freely on the shaft so that the outer puck can push the rotor into the inner puck . If the rotor doesn't move you are only getting half the braking performance.
thank you so much for taking the time to help people like us who live out of town and on a fixed income. God bless you for your kindness. now when the parts come in we'll work on our 35 yr old bolens
Thank you very much. I just took my brake apart and it was exactly like your video. Very helpful.
Wish I'd seen this video in the Summer. Thanks for posting. First job of the next season for me.
Nice! One of the better videos on this procedure that I have seen.
Amazing video Thankyou you Probobly saved me from injuring myself without brakes mine were very worn
Where you used a 10mm socket I found that on mine the sizes are imperial - a 3/8" socket was a much better fit.
Outstanding my friend! I watched 5 plus others video and got no idea. THIS WAS GREAT THANK YOU!!!!!!!!
best video i have watched
best video i have watched on repairs to brakes
Thank you for the video. It is excellent, very clear on the process. I am heading to the garage to fix my brakes.
Cheers Tony
Thanks for this great video I was able to fix my partner brakes at ease
On my Westwood S1300 Peerless gearbox the lever is the other way around. The formed bend in the lever pushes the pins in when the brakes are applied. Also important in my case to adjust the lever position on the brake connecting rod so the pins sit central in the "V" shaped form on the lever. Equal pressure is then applied to each pin when the brake is applied. The pads on mine were badly worn and this probably was the cause of the splines in the rotor being sheered. New rotor and pads and it now works fine.
Very nice video ...Thanks for taking the time to make it and share it !!
You need a parts washer and wire wheel.
Firstly I would like to say that your videos have been really helpful in getting my Honda lawnmaster up and running (essentially the same as the westwood 1200 in most aspects other than the engine). I have been reassembling my gearbox and brakes after fixing broken selector forks in the gearbox and looked to this video to help me with the brakes. Serviced them as shown but noticed that the arm attached to the calliper (the on you connect with a locking nut) was the other way round on my assembly. I assumed mine was wrong but when I started to play with it to see if I could make the pins go in and out the only way I could do it was to reassemble it as it was ie with the angled part of the metal touching the pins. I went back to the Tecumsah manual and parts list and that suggest that is the way to reassemble - is it possible the arm on your brake assembly is the wrong way round. I would send you an image but dont seem to able to post it here
Very informative video and well made.
Great video
Seeing is realizing! Thanks!
Very helpful, thank you so much. I can not finde a manual for the Stiga Park, ao your video comes in habdy.
Thanks that was helpful and done well ill be doing the same fix and cleaning on my lawn mower
For the two sliding rods that push on the pads, you can put it into a standard 3-jaw chuck on a drill to spin it, and just hold the wire brush against it,
Excellent! Thank you.
You put the lever on upside down. (7:09) The bent end with the hole goes on the caliper end. I think it was on backwards when you took it apart too. The bend is what pushes the pins in when the lever turns. Flip that lever over and your brakes will work.
I totally agree with you Stitch Shifter. I was watching the video and could not work out how the pins were suppose to be pushed in. It was only when I read you post that the penny dropped. The Formed part of the lever pushes the pins in when the lever is turned. Top Man !
Yes it was on upside down! The way it was fitted the brake would not have worked!
Just done on t1200 the lever on it was also fitted wrong way took me a while to figure it out 😂
Great video very clear
That final image is wrong. Cannot see how the brakes can work with the lever upside down like that. The bend in the bracket is at the bottom and pushes both pins in at the same time when the lever shifts back. Rest of video was useful however the final image is way off. I also notice that S shaped bracket is missing from this final image. You applied that to the right hand caliper bolt and on to the centre bolt, but it's not there in the last image at 7:47. @robcar2781 who commented further down was correct and reading his comment helped the final stage.
Awesome
perfect process. thanks.
Nice service video except the last step. Adjusting. That is all I needed and you brushed over it. My brake hardly works and I want to adjust it if possible but I dont see quite how.
Great upload!
I managed to salvage one brake pad that needed to be replaced by building up one side with JB Weld Water Weld. Clean it thoroughly with rubbing alcohol and let it dry. Then mash the putty onto the pad and let dry for an hour or so. Then sand it to shape. Place the putty-side away from the disk. Works fine so far.

nice vid, good info
thanks 4 the video I've learned alot
bleachedpc You're welcome!
Any videos on how to remove the gear box?
LEGEND! :-)
The washer is not at the same place at the end than at the begining. Why?
+Jean Schoeters Well noticed. It is there for the adjusting washer, I don't think it makes a difference.
what material is the brake disc made out of? cast iron?
I know this video has been out for about 2 or more years. If you or anyone reads this and can offer any help I would greatly appreciate it. I have a poulan pro riding lawn mower and the brake disc will not turn, plus the mower only goes forward no reverse also it won't go into free wheel even if I pull out the hydrostatic lever out. I'm wondering if the transmission could be bad. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
i have a poulan pro riding lawn mower, it starts but when I release the clutch/brake the engine stops, what causes that?
Haven't proved it yet but it sure makes sense!
Idler pulley and drive belt may be binding.
Lever on upside down? No cam action with the way it was set up
why upside down ? it should work either way how the lawnmower was built
@@Boemel pic in original manual shows it the other way up
@@Boemel The shallow V end is what causes the studs to push the pad in when the arm is moved by the brake pedal. Having the flat end on the studs as per the video would have no effect whatsoever on the studs when the lever is moved. Common sense really and surprised the video maker did not know.
Alot easier with a can of brakekleen
Where can i buy brakes
Pads are available on Amazon for about $7
hope this works XD my brakes don't even work lol
I am sure you have since realized but you put the break lever on upside down
Noticed that as well, only looked at video as ours needed fixing and thought it looked weird, then when I got ours apart was obvious you need the shallow V to push the studs and pad in.
How it is in video the brakes would not even operate.
