Looking for what I think is a drum brake

Am I right in thinking this could be braking problem? If it's wore out?

Desperate to solve this braking problem.

There is a nylock nut on the end of the shaft coming down to the brake band.  Try tightening it up s few turns see if that helps.

But only because we haven't figured out how to fit it with hydroboost yet.

Part of the clutching system in conjunction with the belt guard.

:text-yeahthat:  the 8speed transmissions are not synchronized.  The input pulley needs to be stopped to prevent long term gear damage. The pincher system helps stop the belt when the clutch is disengaged.

Guessing this is the tractor you were peddling awhile back? 

If so you are way off base thinking the drive belt acts as the brake. 

Hopefully we can get you straightened out. 

 

The brake band can often become contaminated  with grease, oil & dirt. Removal of the brake band & heating it up in your  wife's oven at 500 degrees can... never mind just kidding. 

 

Heating up the friction material with a propane torch will burn off these contaminates and SOMETIMES restore life to them. This works  particular well with older style bands... the knitted style. 

If upon inspection it's flattened too much, loose or missing pieces best to replace it with one of Bob's. 

This one got replaced.

      I own a 1990 Wheel Horse Classic Model #31-12KE01. While removing the rear tire I noticed what I've posted in this video link. I assume that's my brake wheel (product name is problem wrong 😄).  Does it look normal as it appears loose to me? The only brake issues though I've had is the tractor rolls when on an incline which I thought was a parking brake problem. So looking for some thoughts.

      Hi guys, I purchased my firs WH - a 1976 C-120 Automatic. I have a steep hill on my property and before I go down the hill, I want to understand how my braking system works. I’m aware that this year/model didn’t include disc brakes, so is the breaking purely hydraulic Via transmission and controlled by the speed lever? Has anyone encountered issues with this? Is it safe to use on a steep hill? Any input is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

      For years I have been struggling with the brake on my Wheel Horse 1067.  Forward motion down hill takes left leg full force to stop and reverse motion down hill is impossible to stop.  So I did a little research and ended up buying a new brake lining from RMaynard (Bob) here on Red Square.  Instructions with it are simple and they work.  Put the brake shoe and new lining on this morning (used Goop to attach the lining to the shoe).  What a difference!  Stops on a dime, on a hill, forward and reverse.    Thanks, Bob !!

      Hello all, I have a 312-8 and slight problem with the braking system... As my last wheelhorse didn't have brakes I want to make sure this one does rolling down the side of the mountain is only fun for the first ten feet. Anyways my brakes currently work well for the tractor or tractor with a heavy load behind but the problem is is that if I try and brake lightly it surges and rips the lawn that I always replace.  Is there a way I can correct the problem with out buying new band or drum?  There pretty costly... At least to me they are. Thought about using a piece of pvc with sand paper around to sand the band down a little bit because I don't think the drum would warp would it?
