yanmar 1510 manual/rear-end question

[pccarver]

Does anyone know anywhere to get a pdf manual for these tractors. Also, I have a whining noise that seems to be coming from the left rear wheel or that general area. Any suggestions to what it could be, to give me a starting place to look, would be very grateful. Thanks.

Does the whining sound change if you press on the brakes? I know dragging brakes can cause a sort of whining sound. So can a bearing that is going out. You might need to jack up the tractor and see if you can narrow down where the sound is coming from.

It does a little. As you slow down it gets more quiet. But the brakes, when I would push them down they would stick and I would have to pry them back up. I greased the cert and it is better.
