zetor 7045 brakes

[farmer_jim]

Hi, just new to this lot so here goes. I have an issue with my zetor 7045. brakes are none existant but hand brake works. i wish to strip them down and sort out. just wondered if anyone has attempted this or has a video on how to. I have search net etc but can only find comments stating how poor the brakes are but nothing on how to fix or sort. Any help would be fantastic. Can i get to brakes with out taking wheels off or not etc. Cheers, Jim???

search brake replacement with the Google on-site search.

No you cant, you have to take the wheel and the portal (final drive) off. So you need either workshop engine hoist, another tractor with frontloader or a forklift to lift it from underneath the mudguards.

Thanks for quick reply. When i google on the site for brake replacement i cant find one specific to 7045. Is the process the same for most models? We have a fork left so can use that. Can i ask is there just brakes on the rear wheels? regards, jim.

the principle of replacing is the same from 3011 to 5340. The 7745 and model 1992 6340/7340 came standard with the same disk brakes as the 8011 Crystal. These were optional on the 7245 by the way.

the diameter of all brake drums since the 9 series is the same, i believe. The 4712 was a stretched 3011 with a bored block.

Any links, Photos etc.

Also, what where is the best 8011 manual in good engish?
