I agree with Owen, to check it, look for color differences and glazing of the friction surface. Limited use can also glaze the brake when surface rust is embedded into the lining. If oily, use brake Kleen spray (off of the tractor) to soak the lining. then let it dry for several hours. If nothing was removed (no discolored oily residue in the spray wash) I would roughen the band and drum with 250 grit silicon carbide paper and put it together. If there is oil, be sure to let the brake Kleen solvent dry completely then use a propane hand torch to heat the lining (off the tractor). do not let it catch completely on fire, just warm and burn sections at a time to boil off the oil/grease. Check the bull pinion shaft seal to assure no oil leaks on to the band. Jim
