John Deere Jd760 Scrapers Brake Technical Repair Manual
(tm1018)
The John Deere JD760 Series A scraper uses a mechanical braking system to control the brakes. Here is some technical information about the brake control system:
- Brake Pedal: The brake pedal Jd760 is located in the operator’s compartment. When the operator depresses the brake pedal, it activates the brake control system.
- Mechanical Linkage: The Jd760 brake pedal is connected to a mechanical linkage that transfers the force to the brake control mechanism. This linkage is responsible for transmitting the operator’s input to the brakes.
- Brake Control Mechanism: The brake control mechanism converts the force from the mechanical linkage into braking action. It is typically located near the rear axle of the scraper.
- Brake Drums and Shoes: The braking system in the JD760 Series A scraper uses brake drums and shoes. When the brake control mechanism is engaged, it applies the brake shoes against the brake drum to create friction and slow down or stop the scraper.
- Adjustment: The brake control system requires periodic adjustment to maintain optimal performance. This involves adjusting the brake shoe clearance to ensure proper contact with the brake drum.
