brake problems

Hi, have a problem with my 2018 LS XR4140H tractor seems like the brakes are sticking,only happens when i go to take it out of my garage,sometimes i have to go full throttle to get her moving,when i get out side i have to move it forward and backwards to free it up,its so bad sometimes that it stalls out the engine just trying to get it moving once it frees up it runs and work perfect,hope if someone as had this problem before or know someone that had this problem can help me out,thats my only problem with this tractor everything else works fine,thanks in advance Rollie.

Hi,

I had similar in a much older tractor with dry drum brakes. The brakes would stick on after using them. Reversing would release them. I drove it like this for around a year until I finally took the wheels and brake drums off. The posts that helped position the shoes were ungreased and applying a little grease to the area on the shoe rib where the posts rode resolved the issue.

Hopefully you have found a solution already, otherwise this may help.
