PTO shuts off

Push PTO/RIO switch down to shut off switch. Lock the park brake, shut off engine and allow engine to cool. Check coolant level. If low, check for leaks. Fix leak issue and add coolant as necessary. Clean debris away from radiator cooling fins.

Once coolant level has been verified, leaks have been repaired and debris has been cleaned sit on seat and start engine. If the coolant temperature light is still illuminated, then the tractor still needs to cool further before the PTO will be operational. Run the tractor at low idle to allow the cooling fan to cool the engine. With the PTO/RIO switch still off, the light will turn off once the tractor has cooled. After the light turns off, pull PTO/RIO switch out to on position. If PTO still does not work, see your John Deere Dealer for service.
