I just picked up my first two wheel tractor- a BCS 850 with the Briggs 14 hp engine. It came with a 30" tiller, a 38" mower, a furrower, a plow, dual wheels, wheel weights, mowing sulky, and quick connects on the implements. The guy also designed and built his own counterweights for balancing.
As I said, this is my first two wheel tractor. I have taken it for a few spins around my barnyard and noticed that the brakes do not appear to be working although they did work when I tested it out at the previous owner's house. I have looked through the owners manual and have not seen any information on how to adjust them. Thought I'd ask here before I just started trying to guess on my own. All the cables seemed slow on retracting. What's the best product for lubricating them? Also, the operator presence control red lever thing cracked. So I guess that will be my first parts purchase. Thanks or your help.
