CC129 Brake Question
 

Before I tear apart the brakes this next weekend I thought I would ask for some insight or advice first. My right rear brake gets hung up and will not release without a love tap. The Brake rod loosens right up when the pedal is released with no problem. However I have to go in from the rear of the tractor and lightly tap the caliper lever for it to release. It is not rusted and when released it moves easily with no friction. Any thoughts?

The cam is probably worn quite a bit and going over center would be my 1st guess.
Are the brakes adjusted properly as per the manual?
Do the brake pads have much lining left?

If lever has flat spot on end of long side it will act as you describe. You will need to build up with weld and reshape to match a known good lever.

If inside pad has groove worn into lever side switch pads inside to outside and vice versa. Might also put some lube on where lever contacts inner pad. Good luck !
