parking brake

I recently got a Cub Cadet Yanmar SC2450. It's working great, but there is a recurring issue. The parking brake lever/pedal never manages to stay engaged for very long before popping back out. It seems to be shaken loose just by the vibration of the engine sometimes, and using the loader or...

I live on a hill without a lot of flat ground so I'm stopped on a hill frequently. I turn sideways when I can or turn the front wheels towards the hill but that's not always possible. I'm talking about short term parking, maybe 5 or 10 minutes. I could turn the tractor off and leave it in gear...

I've owned my 336D for about 4 months now, most of that time was spent fixing various issues. The tractor didn't have a parking brake lever on it, I found a used one online, thinking that I was just getting the lever, and that I'd have to brain out how it mounted, as the parts diagram is...

I've had my LS MT225S for 2.5 years, and it has been a great little tractor. Well, until this summer. In July, the loader valve started leaking whenever the lift cylinders were pressurized (so any time the tractor was running, because one must lift the loader to go anywhere). While waiting for...

Afternoon - I've read several threads about these start issues which often end up with the seat switch being the culprit.\ This issue has been going on for some time. This machine has a new PTO clutch. I replaced the neutral start switch as well, to be proactive. The seat switch tested bad; I...

Yesterday I was bush hogging a hilly pasture and had a brake system failure… luckily I had just reached the bottom of a hill when the anomaly happened! I’m trying to wrap my head around what happened, how to prevent it, and any advice or insight the forum may have to offer. some things about...

All the sudden my New Holland won't stay running when I engage the parking brake and get off the seat. It worked before but now all the sudden it won't do it. I did however remove the rops so it would fit into my garage. Is there some kind of safety switch that made it stop working?

Hi, wife hired a guy to bush hog my pasture with my 3420 Ford without telling me. Guy proceeded to bush hog most of the pasture but stopped when tractor started smoking and hot oil came out the pressure release on top of the gear case. The parking brake was engaged. I had just installed a...

I have, what appears to be, a common issue. However, following all other's previous recommended fixes, I still have my issue. Background: I have a 2004 New Holland TC30. HST. Starts and runs great. I can move the bucket. It will run all day long as long as I don't take off parking brake or take...

Friends, Recently purchased a 2010 Model Craftsman PYT9000 247.289800 13AR91PS0909. Great machine, motor runs strong. However...... The parking brake is not grabbing. I cannot find a way to adjust the tension. There are no threads or nuts on the rod that connect the pedal to the brake...

My transmission belt broke while mowing on a hill. I disengaged the transmission, hooked it up to my pickup and pulled the mower up the driveway. I heard a squealing noise when I was almost to the top. I then realized I forgot to disengage my parking brake 🤯. Now when I push the brake down, I...

We have a 2013 case 580sn. Have an issue with the parking brake releasing without flipping of the brake switch but shifting into gear. Was wondering if anyone ever experienced this problem and if you encounter the solution?

Hi I have a hydraulic leak from where it seems parking brake is. When you pull up on the parking brake it pulls 2 plungers out of the rear axle one on the left side and one on the right side. The left side is leaking and when the parking brake is released the leaking left side doesn't seem to...

My F935 will periodically not crank. Glow plugs come on and fuel system engages, but nothing other than the temperature light comes on when turning the key. I am assuming it's a problem with either the neutral or parking brake switch. I'm hoping someone can help point me to some diagnostic...

I posted this under another topic heading and it got no views, so I am hoping it might get some traction (slaps knee) here instead: https://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/threads/parking-brake-retrofit-1962-case-430-and-i-remembered-pix-before-making-the-post-this-time.458776/ thanks for any input!

The parking brake on my tractor is pretty much useless. It is a coarse-stepped metal tab on the starboard-side pedal that engages with the footboard (you can see the wear in the photos) and the steps are so far apart for the ratcheting action to provide sufficient pressure to keep the tractor...
