A - PTO Shift Lever

B - PTO Switch

NOTE: PTO switch (B) is NOT used (remains disengaged) with ground drive PTO.

CAUTION: When an implement is connected to the ground speed PTO, PTO lever (A) must be in neutral or position for ground speed PTO. PTO shift lever must NOT be in the 540 or 540E positions.

Pay attention to the direction in which the PTO stub shaft rotates. The PTO stub shaft changes the direction in which it rotates depending on whether the tractor is traveling forward or reverse.

The ground speed PTO remains engaged until PTO lever (A) is moved manually to neutral. If it is already engaged when the engine is started the ground speed PTO remains active; it starts to rotate as soon as the vehicle moves.

IMPORTANT: Make sure PTO switch (B) remains in disengaged position while ground drive PTO is engaged.

Engage and disengage ground drive PTO when vehicle is stopped.

Be careful NOT to move PTO shift lever (A) accidentally from ground speed drive position into 540 or 540E position.

Ground drive PTO output occurs when vehicle is moving and PTO shift lever (A) is in ground drive position.

An indicator light on the console instrument panel signals ground drive PTO status.

NOTE: Ground drive PTO speed is proportionate to vehicle speed.
