I noticed that the brakes do not hold or for that matter stop the tractor on a hill. When I asked the dealer he said there are three brake positions and I need to hit the brake harder to set it. I can't find more than 1 position.

It seems to me the brake ought to hold or be able to stop the tractor. Am I missing something? What would I do without this site.

I have a 2015 HST and it has at least two positions or "notches" that I can lock the brakes with when I park it. The first one is pretty easy to set as I don't have to push down on the brake pedals very hard. The tractor will move on a hill with the brakes set on this "notch", however. If I push the brake pedals down with more force I can then lock the brakes on another "notch" and the tractor won't move. Is your 3015 similar?

Thanks for answering. I found two positions but neither holds on a hill. The dealer said there were three notches but I can't find the third.

I believe your brakes need adjusting.
