1020 brake chatter...

I"m hesitant to ask but what"s the primary cause of the brake grabbing on the right hand side? Is there a known common issue with the brakes on the 1020?

Here"s what"s happening...when the brake pedal is depressed just a tiny bit, it seems like the rear wheel nearly locks up. When the tractor is running, it feels like the brake is applied when it isn"t and the tractor will not freely roll.

Is this a repair that can wait for a while or does the repair need to happen before using the tractor for mowing this summer?

Thanks in advance,

Darwin

The wrong oil can cause that problem, and so can the brake-linings falling off. One of the essential ingredients in the hyd/trans oil is to allow fiber clutch and brake linings to grab and slip without chatter. With those tractors, all the linings can be worn off and the brakes will grab - but still work. Easiest way to check for brake-lining wear is pull out the transmssion screen in the bottom of the transmission. If it's clean, you're okay. If it's jammed full of brake material - then you know what is wrong. Some tractors got ruined transmission cases from running too long with no brake linings.

what i would do is start it up and let it idle then carefully loosen the brake line going to the afected side.with the tractor running you should have some oil flow out of the line, but no pressure. if theres pressure there the brake valve needs to be rebuilt. if theres no pressure there the axle needs to be removed to see whats wrong with the brakes. iwould not reccomend using it before its fixed,because dragging brakes will create hot oil,and will contaminate the system
