It replaces part numbers 740107, 790006A, and TC-799021A, ensuring compatibility across multiple Craftsman models. This brake pad applies pressure to the brake disc when the pedal is pressed, effectively stopping the tractor during operation.

Using a standard wrench set, follow the guidance in your tractor s manual to remove the old brake pad and install the new one securely. Proper maintenance of the brake system ensures reliable performance and extends the life of your Craftsman lawn tractor.
