I have an industrial international farm tractor.Made in England,probably in the early sixities.
After the tractor sets up a day or so the brakes lock up,they break loose by putting it in gear and hard throttle.The pedals have no play,it pulls like the brakes are partillay on.
They are not hydraulic,drum for each wheel.
No one seems to know what the problem is.Is there any help out there.
Thanks

Cecil: All I could add to JB2's advice is in 2005 I'd try spray on graphite in place of the white grease. Depending on the amount of use these type of brakes need regular cleaning. When farming and probably putting 500 to 1000 hours per year on tractor, we cleaned them once per year. Not sure you will get much more than 2 or 3 years even if your only running tractor 50 hours per year.

Hi Brakes, your tractor is probably a 3414, 3444, 2500 or 2504 based on the B414 or 444
agricultural models. You need to take the drums off and clean the dirt out of them. You will find an inner and outer disk brake with a ramp and roller mechanism in between to force the disks apart. The ramps and rollers get dirty and the rollers stick in the engaged position. Reversing the tractor usually releases the brakes. We used to put a very light coat of white grease on the rollers, to much and the rollers collect brake dust.
Cleaning the brakes on our B414 was an annual PM thing.

Good luck

I'd start by taking them apart and cleaning the rust and dirt out of them.
