MF 150 PTO Locked up

Rickey Red

Last Friday after just starting to do some cutting with a 5 foot cutter, I hit a large ant mound after coming off a hill. The tracor died. I disengaged the pto, started the tractor, and reengaged pto. The engine lugged down but no movement from the shaft. At first I thought something was hung under the cutter but when I disengaged the pto (it would not disengage running) and started the tractor the pto would turn by hand spinning the shaft. After a few attempts the tractor came home on the trailer. The next morning I started the tractor back up and the pto worked fine. Any ideas about what may be happening would be great. Don't won't to tear something major up when a minor repair may be all that is needed.

Sounds like the problem is with the cutter not the tractor. If you have'nt already, disconnect cutter and run pto without the attachment.
