Bob you will need to remove the brake pans, what you likely have is a brake band shaft seized into the tractor. There should be a brass bushing in the hole into which the brake band shaft goes. I have seen the bushing almost worn away and the shaft rusted in. Soaking in penetrating oil , heating and moving the brake band arm will eventually work it loose. You need to clean the hole, put a new brass bushing in and lube the brake band shaft with white grease. I had one on an H and it took two of us almost 4 hours to unseize it and get the brake band shaft out...hard to believe something can seize that tight...good luck from Mike in Exeter Ontario
