Place a small amount of grease in the hole where the brake pivot goes into the transmission housing and be sure the brake pivot works freely in the cover. Oil the area well and let the excess drip off before installing the new bands.
After installing the bands & getting the pedal free-play to about 1", apply the brakes firmly, lock them in place and adjust the setscrew on the bottom side of the cover. (helps to loosen & re-thread any adjustable parts BEFORE re-assembly) Loosen the jam nut, turn the set screw in until it touches the brake band, back out 1/2 turn & lock the jam nut. This helps prevent the brake from dragging, premature wear, and overheating.
