Operating Shiftable PTO

IMPORTANT: Make sure selected PTO speed is correct for the implement attached. Incorrect speed can result in serious damage to the implement. Excessive engine rpm can also cause excessive PTO speeds resulting implement damage.

PTO gear ratio can be changed by shift lever (A). Lever positions and PTO speeds are as follows:

  • Rearward (B)-540 rpm
  • Middle (C)-540 rpm
  • Forward (D)-1000 rpm

IMPORTANT: Do not attempt to shift PTO speeds when PTO shaft is turning or the PTO clutch is engaged. Damage to PTO shift collars may result.

Push down and forward on PTO switch (E) to engage PTO clutch. PTO indicator will show PTO engagement.

causym CAUTION: Avoid personal injury. The engine must be stopped when implement is being connected. With lever in the "N" position(s), the PTO shaft can be turned by hand to facilitate drive shaft connection.

PTO speed display (F) will show the actual rpm of the PTO shaft. Use the following table for safe operating speeds, if the implement operator manual does not specify allowable speeds.

Indicated PTO Speed Maximum PTO Overspeed
   
540 rpm 630 rpm
540E rpm 687 rpm
1000 rpm 1170 rpm
