Hi.
I have an around 1990s Rover Ranger Autodrive with the 76 cm single spindle deck.

My source of frustration is figuring out how to engage the deck spindle brake because it works in reverse of its desired function. That is on when the deck is engaged and off when it isn't.
I have the parts manual, I have the owners manual and tried adjusting the various rods in combination in many ways.

Is there anybody who has experience with this problem and how to solve this dilemma?
I have attached a picture of the affected area as per the parts diagram.

As a last resort I am considering drilling another hole in the brake pivot (17) to change the action of the brake plate (18) with the hope that I get it right the first time.

Cheers and keep smiling it hides what you are thinking.
