I purchased my 2620 in Feb. and I love it. I purchased the frontend loader, mid mount mower, back hoe, and 3 point rear blade.

The other day I applied the parking brake and forgot to release it before driving, and now the pedal feels as if it has no brakes. The tractor will roll when applied now. I cant believe I did that either :(

What is the chance I can just re-adjust them? If so can you help with the correct steps.

Well, you aint the first to do that ! :D

How far did you go with the brake on? My stalls me to the point that I get reminded quick!

Is that a dual pedal or single ?

follow the rod(s?) from the brake pedal under the tractor to "turnbuckle" type adjusters, if you have slack, you can tighten them up .. if not .. then I was told you gotta split the tractor .. I can't adjust mine anymore, same boat as you, darn parking brake!

If you drove it for any length of time you should probably look at replacing the brake shoes/disks! ;)

Well I got extremely lucky. As I looked it over I noticed the linkage from the parking brake lever had simply come off of the linkage. The cotter pin broke! So it was a .20 repair!
