The emergency brake is engaged by a cable system. This cable is adjustable. Tighten the cable to put more pressure of the pads.

I have an older 4x2 gator.sometimes when I go to take off it makes a squealing noise like the brake is on and if it goes about 15 feet it will quit. and it feels like the brake is on.

If a brake is binding try driving in a straight line on tarmac, lightly grip the steering wheel and brake firmly. The gator will 'pull' toward the binding brake. So pulling left is a left side brake and pulling to the right is a right side brake.
Another test is to chock a wheel and safely jack up each wheel enough to clear the ground and turn each wheel by hand. A binding wheel will feel tighter or won't turn at all.

Adjust parking brake on John Deere gator 550

https://partscatalog.deere.com/jdrc/sidebyside/equipment/1286591/referrer/search/pgId/135271335/partnumber/AM140257/callout/22
I see there is no adjustment procedure in the manual other than "see your JD dealer".



It appears to be a completely hydraulic system with no mechanical linkage so really no different then an automobile with 4 wheel disc brakes.


Be sure the brake fluid is at the proper level. Check that pads are not excessively worn. Bleed the brake system.

How to replace clutch belt?

If you go to http://manual.deere.com and dig through the gator sections there is a host of factory info there. You may find a belt change item to download but as this vehicle has a variable belt drive set up some mechanical knowledge will be required because of the nature of the expanding pulley drive.

Won't go forward, only in reverse

You need a forward/reverse switch, most likely.

You can replace the whole shifter for $28, but the switch may work fine.
