The reason it would not work well on jd's is because they use pads on one side, and a disk with 3 pads on the other side, and the tool will not reach far enough into the disk. It would work fine for the smaller pads, as well as pretty much an allis chalmers brakes.
I've done alot of john deere brakes. I mostly just use a small punch to mushroom the rivet out a little, and then a roll pin punch to set it, But i also agree with ctucker, you always seem to run out of hands. In college we had a prefessional press set up, and it worked slick, however you have to do alot of pads to pay for one. Most machine shops will rivet pads on for minimal dollars, and thats probly the way to go for most people.
