Hi everyone. Quick question for you in re. to setting the brakes. I noticed on other JD tractors, that both brake arms are grooved/serrated so that they can be set while sitting in the seat. At least I think that. On my 1939 H, the arms are smooth. The only way I see to set them is from behind after leaving the seat. I see a lever that will hold the pedal in place. Is what I mention accurate?? I haven't tried reaching down there yet while still on the tractor, but I don't think it's possible. Too far?? I really don't know. I was looking for some provisions on the lever thinking maybe a rod of some type is missing, but didn't see anything. Is this the design of the brakes?? I don't see a constant need to set the brakes, but would just like to know the procedure. Thank you, Nicholas C.
