Hello. Is the "normal" brakes or wet brakes? if "normal" I think the brake shoes are too fare away from the brake drum so you need to adjust them closer, or there is too much brake dirt in the drums. Try blow pressure air in the drum or take drum out and clean with the brake cleaner. If there is wet brakes, you need to adjust brakes. Have you change oils ever? find out right oil type from the user manual. I cant remember right but i think there is some kind of adjust under the brake pedal. not sure cause i dont remember that very well any more.

Fact of the week
Foundling hatches are safe, anonymous drop-off points for unwanted infants, allowing parents in crisis a way to surrender a baby safely without fear of punishment, ensuring the child is rescued and cared for. The concept started in the 12th century, was abandoned in the late 19th century, then reintroduced in 1952. It has since been adopted in many countries.
