Hi, I know just what you mean, trouble is the loader brake doesn't stop you rolling backwards! If you do get round to fixing the brake you will enjoy the tractor much more, well worth the effort. Regards, Jon
Im very grateful you made this video. My sympathies regarding the Queen. I'm in "New England" with an IH 260a which I think is built upon the IH 684. My hand brake functions badly, and so I watched your with attention. It is funny, and informative- quite wonderful. But now I know how involved it might be, so I will adjust it as best I can before attempting this lengthy improvement! Your knowledge and abilities are impressive.
Thank you Christopher, The Queen was an inspiration to us all and an example of how to behave. I am sure that our new King will be the same and I hope that the younger generations will follow suit. Good luck with your tractor. Jon
As Fred dibnah would say “back street mechanicking “ at its best, well done a very informative video thanks for taking the time to make it Regards steve
Couldn't agree with you more, John. Doing this job through the PTO side cover is a trick that would have Houdini impressed. I went one step further on our 584, and removed all the hydraulic tubes. They come right out without too much fuss, except the brake lines, which can be easily wiggled aside once they're undone. Just be sure to put identifying marks at the connections, as you have about a half dozen very similar looking tubes to reinstall afterward. Taking a few pictures doesn't hurt, either.
I agree, always take photo's before a complex strip down. Especially helpful on drum brakes, it's always difficult to remember which springs went where. Jon
Well I found your video to be very well done, humorous and informative. I am attempting this very job on my 574 and was hoping to do the side route but I’m afraid now I’m doomed to have to pull the lid off. I already have the fenders and tank and a rear wheel off so might as well go full send on it I reckon!
Thank you, I am glad it helped you. It is a different tractor with a hand brake! If I were you I would also upgrade the hand brake warning system, I did a little video about it, (afterwards I ended up putting two switches on the clutch). It would be a shame to do all that work and then drive away with the brake on putting you back to square one! Good luck, Jon
I just did mine this evening. Not an easy job at all. Where I had a lot of trouble at was the little pins holding the band onto the band bracket itself. There’s little splines on them and I had a difficult job in pushing them back in. Did you have any trouble with them?
Hi Raymond, I don't recall having any problems with the pins. I hope my video helped you. Now you know how difficult it is, I do recommend that you upgrade the handbrake warning system. Regards, Jon
@@wotjonsez2560 yes extremely difficult but I have it done now at least. Will definitely be upgrading to a buzzer on clutch/handbrake. Don’t want to be doing that again. Yes your video was really helpful. Thanks
I'm needing to give my 454 a birthday and this video is scaring me. 😂 thanks from Australia
Good luck, Jon
Good day from Canada I have a loader on my 574, which is my brake! Wow alot of work. Thanks

@@wotjonsez2560 yes that would not be good!! That’s what happened originally I think.
Ok, now teach me how to do the clutches on a 724. Thanks ;)

Where in Scotland are you?
Near Dumfries
I don't see a mention how long of a job this is?
Towards the end of the video I do go into the time it took and the tools I used. Regards, Jon
@@wotjonsez2560 Thanks! I'll have to back and watch it again with audio. :)
