How to free a stuck brake - with lever welded to shaft?

Call Hoye or submit a help ticket at Hoye. He has a lot of that stuff that says not available. Lots of it he has new and some he has as used parts on the shelf. Worth a message through the ticket. He is usually quick to respond. Sometimes responding way out of business hours like at 10pm on a Saturday. Not saying he will do it every time but I have had some back and fourth messages with him like that. Again I'm not saying he will always do it and do not want anyone to think that he does it all the time. He deserves his down time as much as anyone.

Next time the pedal sticks - I hope several years - I now know what I need to order, to do it right. Until then if there's no noticeable problem I'll leave it alone.

I had to free a stuck brake - same project - on the YM240 when I bought it in neglected condition in 2003. It hasn't stuck since. Hopefully this YM186D project will last a few years too.
