Boys I have done a couple of H's and there's something really wrong here as I read your description. The bands could be correct in the brake pan but is it possible that the adjusting mechanism (brake band lever)has been flipped a half turn inside the pan and you've put the pins in in that position so that it won't tighten up? Make sure that your very first adjustment is the set screws under the bottom of the brake pans. These screws should go in until they are snug, they won't go in all the way, these center the brake band inside the pan. Then you go to the clevis and set your adjustment there leaving an inch and a half or two on the pedal from the deck. Both my H's will slide the rear wheels on any surface and the adjustment was straight forward. I have a diagram in front of me here that my Case I-H dealer ran off of his computer , shows all parts and lists all part No.s. The more I look the more it seems that there's a possibility that the band may be hooked to the wrong holes in the brake band lever.( that is the lever got turned a half turn in the pan) I have an extra set of brakes and pans in the shop and I am going to go out and look. The other possibility is that the band is not the correct size as I have heard others on the forum say they bought jobber bands that were out by a half an inch..don't make sense that one fits and one doesn't..will check in the shop and get back if it still isn't figured out...Mike in Exeter Ontario
