PTO OPERATING CONTROLS
Mechanical Transmission
The rear PTO is engaged and disengaged using the
lever. When the lever is upward the rear PTO is disen-
gaged.
FIG. 47: Use the following procedures when operat-
ing with PTO tools, such as mowers, etc.
The tractors have a single clutch. With the PTO
engaged and transmission gears selected, the PTO will
start turning and the tractor will start moving forward as
the clutch is released.
In operations such as mowing grass it will be necessary
to back the tractor up about two tractor lengths away from
uncut grass. This will allow time to start forward motion
and obtain correct PTO speed prior to entering the area
of uncut grass.
To select the rear PTO, push the clutch pedal completely
down to disengage drives to the PTO and transmission.
Lever (1) to M position in slot, and the gearshift levers to
selected gear. Release the clutch pedal at slow engine
speed to start the PTO and forward travel, then increase
engine speed to obtain the required PTO speed.
