I have a Ford 1520 that acts as follows:I can put the rear PTO in gear without an attachment, and it rotates and stays in gear. (The mid PTO works okay.) Although it may only be partially engaged. When the rear mower, or a load is attached, it turns about 1 time and jumps out of gear. I can not hold it in gear and don't want to force it. I tried to hold it one time and it can't be done. It appears that it is not FULLY engaging the gears. Is there any adjustment available to me without tearing the tractor apart. I disconnected the lever to attempt to rotate the shaft directly at the case and it made no difference. It moved no further. Are the mid PTO and the rear connected in any way that if the mid PTO is not fully released, the rear PTO would act this way? Connectivity? Is this an expensive repair for a dealer to make? Any help is appreciated. Please also respond to my email "csx@fordshelby.com".
Thanks in advance,
John
