Is there any self maintenance that I can perform on the brake pedal so that it returns to its normal position? I have to use my food/hand to get it to return - ie: its sticky. ??
thx.

The brake pedal and forward/reverse pedals all pivot on an assembly rod which has 2 grease nipples but these are for the hydrostatic forward/reverse pedals only. I don't think there is anywhere else easily visible to oil it. Are there any grease fittings on the wheel/hub where the rod connects to? ....

OK, I put some oil on the rod assembly that has the grease nipples and worked the brake pedal back/forth about 50 times and it's now working much more freely. That should do it.
Thx. ....

It is good to oil all pivot points even those that have no oil or grease points. Some chemicals oftens used around tractors can create rust real quickly. (fertlizer being a big one and some chemicals used for weeds suspect snow has it own issues) ....
