A - 1000 RPM Stub Shaft

B - 1000 RPM End

C - 540 RPM End

Diameter of the standard PTO shaft is 45 mm (1-3/4 in.). High power, heavy PTO loads require the strength of this large 20 spline shaft. Use this size whenever possible.

The optional PTO package includes a 45 mm (1-3/4 in.), 1000 rpm stub shaft (A) with 20 splines for high power, heavy PTO loads and a 35 mm (1-3/8 in.), 1000 rpm shaft (B) with 21 splines and a 35 mm (1-3/8 in.), 540 rpm shaft (C) with six splines for light load applications only.

IMPORTANT: Use the 35 mm (1-3/8 in.) 540 rpm PTO shaft only on implements requiring less than 56 kW (75 PTO horsepower).

Use the 35 mm (1-3/8 in.) 1000 rpm PTO shaft only on implements requiring less than 112 kW (150 PTO horsepower).

Use the 35 mm (1-3/8 in.) 540 and 1000 rpm PTO option for light-duty farm use only. Use the 45 mm (1-3/4 in.) 1000 rpm PTO shaft if heavier loads are expected.
