Brakes on a 104
 

The brakes on the 104 that I brought home this week don't work. I ordered a manual for the tractor, but it won't arrive until mid-week. I won't do much with it until the manual arrives and I can see what I am doing. Just curious if you guys can give me an idea what I am getting in to. Any secrets or tips from those that have been there, done that?

Is this brake system the "internal brake"....???

BTW....all the Manuals for the 104 are in our Technical Library Section.

Yes, they are internal.

You will find out the brakes are easy to adjust,just look up the manual here at this site and get wrenching!:GoodLuck:

Ok, forgive my newbie ignorance, but which manual in the tech section do I want? I don't see the 104 listed.

Here you go

Much obliged Alvy, thanks.

In the middle of canning tomato juice, I was able to adjust the brakes and get them working. The downside is that there was almost zero adjustment left and I pretty much bottomed out the adjustment bolt. So although they are working fine now, I figure it is only a matter of time before I have to go a bit deeper to make a repair.

It might not be as soon as you think, the wet brakes last a LONG time.

Good to know, thanks.
