I explained the clutch adj. on Your other post. SH has disc brakes. Brakes are adjusted on the side of the tractor You want to adj. the brake for. There's a spring loaded clevis that has a long 3/8" FINE THREAD bolt running through it from the large dia. rod the pedals pivot on to the actuating mechanism that runs inside the cast iron disc brake housing. To adj. the brakes You have to loosen the jam nut and turn the 3/8" fine thread bolt INTO (clockwise) the linkage. You want about the same 3/4" free travel on the brakes You have on Your clutch. Snug up the jam nut and your done. Adjusting both clutch & brakes should not take more than 10 minutes unless the tractor has set outside and everything is siezed up with rust. You will eventually probably need to replace the brake discs inside the housings, 2 needed per side and do some maintenance on the actuating plate between them but Thats the subject for another post. The disc brakes on the late Letter Series Farmalls and the early Number Series (1952 till about 1962 vintage) work REALLY WELL when they work right but it's tough to keep them working that way for extended periods of time without working on them. You do a little work on that Super H, get some seat time on it and You'll see why FARMALL outsold deere about 4 to 1 during most of the 1940's and early 1950's.

It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
