JD 3020 brakes

[Frequent Flyer]

How accessible are the brakes on a 3020? Are they very difficult to repair? Left one is OK, but right side doesn't work. Feels like it's frozen.

Not to bad you have to go to the back take wheel off and axle and then they are assesible. Not to hard but can take awhile.

Frozen ? Are you talking about the pedals ? If so, it sounds like you need to rebuild the brake valve.They can rust up in several different places. Pull it apart and clean the parts up by using a wire wheel on a grinder.

no need to take wheel off . pull axle housing and wheel at same time . it will save alot of trouble.
