Ok that's the brake drum the shoes/ pads are inside.
Looks like you already have the cir-clip off the shaft, so just tap the sides with a dead blow or rubber hammer to get the drums off the shaft, you might have to back the brake rods off as the shoes might be worn into a grove on the inside of the drum.

Those drums are pretty robust. You can hit them fairly hard. I had my local brake repair shop re-shoe and turn the drums. Now the tractor stops like it should. G

Did you pull the external cir-clips?
If you did not push, then drums onto the shaft and look for the clip in the grove on the shaft.

everything is off except the brake arm which i cannot get off which seems to be the main problem( attacked to the plate) they have seized up on both sides, not sure if it screws off or have to knock it apart, Any ideas?
I'm also looking for a manual for a mate of mine who has had his L1500 for about 6 months now and he keeps asking me questions about it that I can't answer.
This is a link to the L175 / 225DT Manual

Should help.
Thanks Bill, much appreciated, I have passed it on to my mates daughter up the bush, so she can show him to make sure it is right before she prints it off for him. Should make him happy.
Another problem he just mentioned is that there is an oil leak on top of the gearbox, coming from the plate the gear levers are mounted to. Is there supposed to be a breather on the gearbox and could this be blocked causing this leak?
Cheers Norm

Bill,
Lift the seat and take a picture and I'll point out the breather or where it should be.
This is under the seat.....
And this is directly in front of it.....
I even checked the parts manual, do not see a breather ?

Oh I'm sorry, I just found the answer.
While the port is there ( in yellow) they didn't use it.
They used a vented cap instead.

Interesting, will have to check into that / in my spare time.It's under the tool box.
Yea I looked at the parts diagrams too, they show the port, but not the tube or the hose.
Right now the priority is my Auger.
If any one would know it would be you.
Now that you mention it that does make sense, I remember cleaning a bunch of gunk out of that little pin hole when I was painting it.
Problem solved.
Excellent info once again, very much appreciated, obviously the vent hole is blocked. Every photo brings up another question and the one looking atr the control adjuster with F and S on it I think controls the lift/lower rate on the hydraulics, correct? The 3 point linkage is obviously not live hydraulics with just lift control, not lowering. This is all run using the gearbox/diff oil? This machine is also fitted with a Bulldog loader, any clues as to where the pump and oil tank for this is fitted. Sorry for all these questions but I have only looked over this machine briefly as it is at a mates place about 3 hours drive away and I only get up there every month or so.
Thanks again for all the help, much appreciated.

That is correct, controls the lowering rate. And runs off the gear oil.
I can not speak to your setup, however my Great Bend loader is directly connected to the hydraulic lines via an adapter and uses the internal gear oil.
I think this is the standard for FELs, Backhoes may have there own tank?
Unfortunately I do not have on so I am not positive on that.

Thanks Bill I would say you are right there, I didn't see a pump or tank and I did see the loader lines appearing to run towards the rear. If this is the case then it does not have live hydraulics on the loader either, hydraulic lift but you only open the valve to lower the bucket? This hits on the head his wish to fit a 4 in one bucket then.
Once again thanks
Cheers Norm
Once again thanks
