With the engine running loosen the bleeder screw and see if there is oil coming out under pressure with the pedal against the platform. There should be no oil flow. Some oil may dribble out but there should be no flow if you put your finger over the bleed screw. Oil under pressure means either the pedal linkage is out of adjustment or there is a problem with the valve. Seized pins in the pedal linkage can also cause problems.
Problems in the brake assembly may be too much dirt and debris inside the drum. Later tractors have larger holes on the bottom to allow the dirt to get out. You may also find broken or short return springs. If the brakes overheat the springs can lose their temper and not exert enough pressure to release the brakes. Problems with the adjusters tend to be more a matter of keeping the brakes from applying properly.
