Like Aces said, when you step on the brake pedal, the two actuator disks rotate in different directions. Inside there is a tapered groove that the balls set in. As the actuators rotate, the two disks of the actuator cam out pushing the brake disks against the brake housing giving you the friction that stops the tractor. If the brake disks are too worn, you will not be able to adjust them enough to make good contact. They aren't that expensive to replace. Sometimes the balls get rusty or pitted and don't want to roll or the groove gets a pit worn in it. If that's the case, the pedal won't move much. I smoothed the balls and groove on my 460 with sme emery paper and now they work well.
