I have had my TC45 for a couple months and only have 25 hours on it. Any time I brake I can hear a rubbing/grinding noise. Is this normal?

That is what I was afraid of. So far everything else has worked well. It moves full buckets of rock and uproots trees like noones bussiness. Only time I really use the brakes is when I am mowing, and thats only when trying to avoid dragging against a tree. ....

Well I found the cure for the brake noise. It was the combination of the anti chatter additive I found at the dealer and breaking them in. Once I put in the hydraulic fluid additive the noise mostly went away accept for on really hard braking. So I got on it and ran a few stretches, hit the brakes and after about the 3rd run the noise is completely gone. Of coarse I won't need to brake that hard while operating but atleast I know that is all it was. ....
