Retired Wrencher 5,444 #1 Posted May 17, 2023 I have a couple questions on the PTO. I have a bracket that mounts to the engine. Are they all the same meaning the 8hp and the 10hp and up are they the same bracket? Also what am I missing in these picks. How to engage the PTO? something is missing. Not an expert on these pto`s.

Achto 27,535 #2 Posted May 17, 2023 The bolt by your finger should go through the mounting bracket, not the U shaped rod. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peter lena 8,596 #3 Posted May 17, 2023 @Retired Wrencher looks to be all there to me , try moving the trunnion , to enhance engagement, the mount bolt , is holding that in place , loosely , that swings on the back stud , is the starting point at the cowl area , sloppy , worn ? verify function , should be easy , pete Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peter lena 8,596 #4 Posted May 17, 2023 @atcrawfo you are right , the pivot points are wrong . hiding in plane sight , just came back from therapy , pete Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Achto 27,535 #5 Posted May 17, 2023 The bolt is the pivot point of the triangle piece. When you pull back on the PTO lever it should cause hoop to move the clutch pulley towards the engine. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
