I may be wrong or wronger, but I adjust mine to grip ASAP if the peddle is pushed since I NEVER use it unless its a total panic situation (see my recent thread about my hydro handle going around like a roulette wheel... cub vs. TJ/house/whatever damage, TJ/house/whatever wins every time if I get a choice). I'm not outrunning neutral, but mine are adjusted CLOSE. If you mess it up you'll know right away because the hydro will whine with the brake depressed or the pads will drag. Put the rear up on a jack and spin the wheels by hand to make sure the pads are free.
Yes, its totally possible your linings are toast and that they need replaced, but you should be able to adjust them all the way down to nearly (or all the way... never tried) metal on metal if you want. There are procedures to replace the linings, but sadly you can't just buy new pads like you can for a car. NLA. As plenty of others have said, you should practically NEVER need to use the brakes on hydro tractor. If it's not stopping under reverse load, it ain't gonna stop anyhow because you're out of traction. I experience this every single time I mow my hill and duals aren't practical for the rest of my property so we go down fast and up slower.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
