The right brake is sticking. I'm not sure how these brakes work. They are inside the rear axle. It must be removed to get to the actuating disk, disk, etc. I appreciate any information that might help me in this repair.

Thanks,
John

820 German built Deere is basically the same tractor as the AG 1020 or Industrial 300. Wet power brakes in the planetary final drives. They will grab and/or stick if the oil you're using does not have the proper wet-clutch/brake additives. Kind of the opposite problem you get when you use oil that HAS the additives in a machine like a Cletrac crawler - and then the brakes will NOT grab enough. Your sticking could also be due to a brake valve malfunction also - but it's rare. They work so well, that even when the linings are completely torn - or - worn off, the brakes still work okay. Shows up in the hydraulic intake strainer. I've pulled apart a few that were sticking or a little noisy only to find just about nothing left inside but metal filings.

Disconnect the brake line as see if it still sticks. Did anyone by chance dump some gear oil into the transmission?

Last summer the right brake would not work at all. It went to the floor and would stay their until I pushed the left brake pedal.
I cleaned the intake screen, relpaced the transmission oil filter, and replaced the hydraulic oil with a John Deere"s product. I bleed the brakes and new clean oil came through the line. I think the old oil had water in it. The old oil was the color of penut butter. The tractor had been used very little for the last 6 years. Now the right brake drags all the time and when the right pedal is pushed it will only move about 1/2 inch.

Thanks,
John

Uh oh. Both right and left brakes have to come apart.
