Exactly what I needed for my Cub and JD, both from the dump and learning as I go with people like you giving up your time. Thanks
Thanks. This is about my 10 videos looking for adjust (not rebuild) the brakes on my Craftsman lawn tractor. It seems close enough to figure it out now. I dont know why the others gloss over or ignore the adjustment.
It worked!! No more risking my life to help my neighbor with the steep lawn!
Thanks so much for this. I have not had brakes for almost two years. After watching this I now can stop on hills. Almost flipped my mower a couple of days ago
Gonna give this a shot on my 1998 MTD yard machine.
I haven’t had decent brakes for about 2 seasons now and kept thinking I’d just buy a new machine as I’ve fix or replaced so many parts and pretty much have to work on it every time I use it for one reason or another.
Usually tires
and battery issues.
I’ve been pricing all the parts I need to fix my mower right and fix all the quirks and it’s literally a little over $100.oo so I’m definitely going to just freshen up this old girl and get it right for cheap.
I’d be crazy to buy a new mower when parts are so cheap and easy to fix on this thing.
Thanks for the video....I’m a do it myselfer and these videos help greatly.
I’ll try this trick and if it doesent work I’ll just free up my caliper and buy a new disk and pucks.
No store had brake pads for my LT 1000. So I took the old brake pads And glued some hard wood to the pad. I measured the thickness of a new pad. So far it is working. Saw one place online wanted $23 plus shipping for one pad.
I found a pair of brake 'pucks' on line for our craftsman DLT 3000 for less than $8.00.
Thanks. Was given 1979 John Deere 108. Got as far as rebuilding steering box and replacing cracked engine. Then it sat in my shed for a decade. Making brakes work took about as long as watching this video.
Thank you. you have the best step by step with visual video. I just got a 2006 toro lx460. I have bin working the bugs out of it. It's my backup mower. For a small tractor it's a lil beast. I like it. I'll be looking to do all the belts next spring. Just fixed steering. Again. Thanks for the easy follow video. Keep up the great job.
Thank you now I can finish my racing mower I was stuck on that your video helped me and saved me for not being able to race
Worked on my old Murray that had no brakes. Good video, thanks
I love it that has to be the easiest way to adjust brakes on a riding mower that I have ever seen. Can't wait to try that out I bet mine are way out of adjustment. I think however on my 66 Gilson it probably does not work that way but I will take a look and see. Thanks!
One thing to keep in mind, sometimes those pins can get stuck especially if it's on a mower that has been sitting for a good while. They're not hard to get unstuck, but they can be annoying. I usually remove the aluminum part they're slid into and take it over to a bench vise, then with some persuasion from a hammer and a set of pliers I can get them out. Clean them up on a wire wheel (careful to not let them go flying) and if all goes well they should be able to slide back and forth freely. A little bit of slider grease (like for the brakes on your car) and they can be popped back in.
Thank you. I appreciate you taking the time to do this!
Thank you for video 😍 I have the same situation with my lawn mower 😳 I will try to fix it according to your example 🤩
Yes finally 3 videos later I find the one Thank you Sir
I bought my riding mower brand new 7 years ago. Guess it was not right out of the box. I had no idea it had brakes and just assumed it was like a boat lol
Thanks for making a good video. I like a guy that appreciates an old lawn mower!
Need a video on how to get my wife to mow the lawn😂😂
Thanks for sharing this, I now have brakes on my old Dynamark..
I would be interested to see how you adjust the brakes on the hydrostatic system if you get one sometime to tear down that would be interesting to see how it's done I think it would make a great video.
Thanks. Worked on my v-twin Honda ride on mower!
GOOD ONE, YOU WERE ADJUSTING THE BRAKE WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL LOCKED DOWN, RIGHT?
Absolutely
Was wondering that myself.
You don't ever need to replace the pads if there a little worn all you have to do is put a shim behind the metel plate behind the pad and ...... wala your original pads will last a lifetime.
thanks for the video, buddy- i'm hoping to adjust my Craftsman LT2000 brakes now.
Thank you I have the MTD style and learnt something today cheers Mate
Thank you.. Perfect video and instruction
Great information. I assume it is not in freewheel mode when you test pushing it?
good old mower!
Worked perfect. Do as he says you cant go wrong.
Grass is always greener over the septic field. Pins in brake assembly must be able to move freely or this adjustment won't work. If they are seized....remove the steel pins from the brake assembly by pounding them out, clean the rust by whatever method works for you, they must freely fit in the brake....it is steel pins versus aluminum brake...SO !....bore is 5/16" originally....remember it is not the Space Shuttle...when the pins are "clean" and they don't move freely....don't be afraid to drill the next size or two to let them move freely. Anti Seize them, then assemble and adjust. Never get in front of the mower "operator" ...chances are you would be rolling the dice.
Thank you so much!!! Very helpful! God bless!
Heck, even I should be able to do that. It'll give me a break (ha!) from all the hard jobs I'm working on (removing circlips with crap circlip pliers that won't go in or stay in the holes)! And you've solved your problem of your wife freaking out! Thanks.
Thanks again for sharing
Can you help me please, my husqvarna wheelies when I try to let my foot off the brake pedal. Theres no way to ease off gently no matter how slowly I ease the pedal up. It's very jerky.
Hey, that was easy! Thanks for sharing.
Very helpful. Thank you man
Tha ma for the making the video. I’m having a similar problem. My brakes don’t seem to work but my mower won’t stop even if my foot isn’t on the accelerator. The tension is making it near impossible to shift gears without killing the engine first. Any suggestions where to look?
worked super good
I thank you for this video. It helped me out.. My John Deere LT133 is hard to shift. I had the drive belt replaced. Reading forums, they seem to suggest using penetrating oil clean ant dirt . How do I do this without removing the rear wheels? Thank you, Lou
Thank you for a helpful video.
Good video I wish you would of how to adjust the clutch I cannnot find one video on you tube on how to adjust the clutch on electric all day long but mechanical no way MTD craftsman
there is no adjustment
Thanks for the info
Awesome thx for the help!
No with brakes off untill you cant move it then back off a quarter of a turn
How far does your brake/clutch pedal go down??? My murray goes down too far when I set the brake rod???
Thank you sir! Great video
good video. nicely explained. very helpful on my old Hayter 13/30...old but good..!
great, it worked, thanks
Thanks Budd
Thank you sir!
Thank you
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks!!
Great video 👍👍
I have a old john deere gt240 do you know how close this setup is
.011 gap on the pad
It won’t be long til u hit 100k subscribers
Thanks for your support.
THEMOWERMEDIC1 you’re welcome
THEMOWERMEDIC1 I love your channel
Never saw the link for pads...
Amazon.com. Type in your model and type break pads
@THEMOWERMEDIC1 so, no link. 😂
So i have a newer husqvarna its doesnt have that same braking system or am i just not looking close enough?
does this work for older mowersalso
Hello: Do you tighten the nut with the brakes engaged? I'm thinking "yes." Is that right?
Lol did you even watch the video? No you
Do not lock the brake Down
@@THEMOWERMEDIC1 I watched it. Must have missed the part where you mentioned that. I did it with the brakes engaged just until they caught. Working fine now.
Little suggestion. You might not want to laugh at your subscribers. Lots of competition out there, you know.
@THEMOWERMEDIC1 you just told Lostsoul that you had the brake locked down. So which is it? Locked or unlocked?
N/m found a assembly
Just to let you know your brake lever is on the wrong way,
Lol no it’s not
Apparently it's a gauntlet challenge to find a 0.50" x 1.35" and a 0.50" x 1.25" set of pads for a late 70's/early 80's MTD. So sick of this wild goose chase bullshit.
Since there was no way I was going to find a new set of pads that fit in this century, I ended up putting a plastic shim behind the thick pad that sits in the outer part of the assembly with the pins and tried testing it as shown in the video with no success. The tires would not grab while lifted off the ground no matter how much I tightened the nut. I found the brake disc would turn while spinning the tires in neutral, but would not turn while spinning the tires in gear. I feared the gears for the brake disc were stripped out. I decided to just start the engine and give it a try while driving and lo and behold I had brake action. While on a hill with a slight slope, I loosed the nut until the tractor rolled freely down the hill. I tested the brakes while rolling down the hill several times and they worked great.
Don't you think your wife deserves a new mower?
