Case International 885 Brake System Repair 

Thank you so much! I have been struggling with a freakish brake bleed malfunction problem. This would seem to explain it all thought I have an older version of the reservoir on a 784. I cant wait to check this out in the morning!

If you've ever wondered if creating a video like this one makes any difference. It does. My 685 with only 2,100 hrs lost ALL braking over the past winter. I tried several solutions - none worked until I spotted your video. To be sure, removing and replacing this reservoir is no small task. There is almost no clearance for hands or tools under the dash. I ended up removing the hood and the battery box just to gain access. The 'return' line stand pipe was out of the reservoir by 3/8 - to 1/2". Further, one of the small brake cylinder standpipes was out about 1/8". I super glued all of them back in after a clean up. Reinstalled, bled brakes following CASE instructions - got the best brake pedal I've ever had with this tractor. Thank you for your effort.

Thank you! I lost all brakes on my Case IH 895xl. Took it apart to day, and indeed the steel pipes had slid down on both return and pressure side. Thank you from Norway!

You're absolutely right no info on this at all, even in the maintenance manual there is a blank on the brake system, thank you so much from Cornwall England

Thank you !! first time it was ever shown properly really appreciate it.

Found your video today. I wanted to say thank you for it. You help us out with are 695. Once again thank you very much I hope you and your family doing well.

Thanks, from Cornwall UK

Just had today a local Case dealer on the phone and he told me exact the same what I have with my case tractor. Many thanks for visualizing this before I take it apart. 👌

I want to say thank you for doing this video, I had the same problem and with your video I now have plenty of brake now, thank you again

Thank you sooooo much for this great video. I followed your instructions and got the brakes working on our Case International 885. Everything was exactly as you described. Thanks from Ireland.

Which line is the drain line that’s referenced in the article you linked?

How far back in should it be pushed? The metal pipes to the reservoir
