After a long search I finally got my new 986. It had a few bugs I had to work out but I am having trouble with the brakes. First the break wear indicator light is on, which more than likely means I need brakes. But when I move the tractor foward or backward and then I push the clutch in the tractor stops itself without touching the brakes. Could the brakes be that bad that it is holding itself, or could the brakes be adjusted up too much, or the tractor sat around for about a year without much use or movement, would something be rusted & hanging up? I can not hear any noise like metal rubbing together but I do not have to press the brake pedals in much before they seem like they do not want to go in anymore. I have minimal knowledge of hydraulic wet brakes so any information on the subject would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
