Operating Power Take-Offs
CAUTION:
Always disengage the PTO when not in use.
CAUTION:
High-inertia implements do not come to a standstill the moment the PTO control lever is shifted to the disengaged position. Do NOT approach the implement while it is "coasting down". Do not work on the implement until it has stopped.
The PTOs can be engaged and disengaged on-the-go and under load. When a PTO is engaged, the relevant light (A) and/or (B) comes on.
To switch on the PTO, lift up the switch button and turn it to the right. To switch off the PTO, press the button down.
NOTE:
If the engine is switched off while the PTO is running and then restarted, the PTO will not re-engage. Even so, lights (A) and (B) continue to shine and flash. Switch off PTO and then restart.
