Braking system. First it only takes about 400 lbs. pressure to keep the brakes off.If you think that is the problem a simple hand pump and a couple of valves will answer that in an afternoon. Use a porta power and a gauge or park it so you know when the brakes are released.turn the valve and give it a try. Also should be able to tell with a radar temp gauge .If the front wheels are a hundred degrees or so hotter than the back then the brakes could be dragging. Next thing is how does it go in the morning with the brakes on. These brakes will burn themselves up in short order if left on.The braking surface is negilible once they have worn any amount.

I also think that i would try some of the older dealers around.Ones that know these machines.If Michigan chief can't answer your questions call Davis machine in Iowa.Don't have a number handy but could get it.

One more thing that is kinda unrelated.If the wheel seals are leaking on any of the wheels fasten your seat belt or put new snap rings on the bearings. You can buy the kit with three different sized rings.
