I am loosing my brakes on my IH 784. Can anyone tell me where the master cyllinder is?

You have bad o rings and the brakes need bleeding. There is a bleeder valve at the rear of the tractor on each side> you need a hose that will fit over the valves. then run each hose to the filler hole for the rear end open bleeders and let the tractor run. It will bleed itself out and brakes will work until it needs bleeding again. Sooner or later you will have to replace the O rings and it requires pulling the axles off the tractor.

Got to CaseIH.com and look up 784. They have schematics there that will show you where everything is.

They are located under the battery . Take the side covers off around the steering column. There is a procedure for bleeding the brakes on those. ITs best to have a book. There is a return line that you need to pinch shut while bleeding, that goes from the plastic reservoir to the trans housing.

Hi Al, look for signs of hydraulic fluid leaking below the dash and along the top of the transmission. The brake lines come from under the battery box, under the sheet metal covering on top of transmission housing to under the seat. Check for leaky lines. Muck more difficult if you have a cab on the 784.
