The owner explains how the cam-and-linkage mechanism works, shows the underside brake-disengage cable, notes the ~$235 price and few hours of install time, and importantly reveals you can skip the manual's step of pulling the left tire and fender. Best for owners planning their own install.
Posted by an owner-operator (Jeffery Guy) documenting their own tractor project, not a dealer or manufacturer.
No. The instructions say to remove the left tire and fender, but the owner skipped this by carefully orienting the linkage before installing the bracket.
The owner paid about 235 dollars from his local dealer, and installation took probably a couple hours without working too hard.
A cable runs from the brake pedal linkage to the cruise control. Hitting the brakes puts tension on the cable, releasing a cam that lets the mechanism return.
Yes. A bracket ties into the cable so split brakes can be used without releasing the cruise control, while linked brakes disengage it.
