Bought an 806 from my in-laws. Was used for light work, mowing, hauling bales, etc. Didn't have much for brakes when he bought it 20 years ago. If you pumped it a bit you had enough to stop if you had to. The brake housing would get smoking hot if you run it down the road very long. Anyway right before I bought it they had new brake discs put on both sides. The plates looked pretty good so they reused them. Nothing really changed. The pedal goes just about to the floor and still very little brakes, either side. I followed the IT manual and the brake pedal travel already was 4 1/8". Didn't mess with the control valve adjustment, couldn't get to the clamp screws. I bleed the brakes and there was no air at all. What I am thinking, and it isn't covered in the IT manual, that there might be a problem with getting hyd. pressure to the brake valve spools or the brake spools need rebuilt. Any ideas? Thanks Dan
