Hi Grubbie, Your tractor has an independant PTO system (IPTO) The clutch pack consists of a drum with sintered bronze & steel plates. Hydraulic pressure from a piggy back pump on the main hydraulic pump feeds the clutch via a control valve which either allows oil flow to engage or disengage the PTO. In other words, the PTO is INDEPENDANT of the tractor clutch, and can be engaged on the move. There is a wave washer in the drum, which acts as a cushion, and this washer sometimes breaks up, wedging the pieces between the plats, preventing the pTO from disengaging. This model only has a gauze filter on the pump, wkich has a habit of clogging up. This can also prevent your PTO from engaging or slipping under heavy load.
