5211 PTO

Now PTO works -all the way forward have lift and no pto--up one notch and lifts with pto----problem is it grinds gears when trying to change positions of the pto lever....can put in all the way forward before cranking it but when you try to put it in the pto and lift spot it grinds--have to kill it, put it in pto with lift notch then crank it with pto in gear...What do I check?? Thanks

Check your pto clutch adjustment. There's an adjusting rod on the l/h side below the clutch slave cylinder. Should have about 2/3 mm of play. Use a lever to feel it against the return spring.

on my 6718 you have to engage the pto handbrake and drop the engine revs before you attempt to change the pto selector

I have tried different adjustments on the cable on the l/h side-it looks like if it is adjusted any more where it will(in theory) disengage more-then not sure what position it will return to--looks like the long spring underneath is returning to its full relaxed position when the disengage lever is let down..Anyway I guess all I can do is play with it some more and see what happens.

@Brian
lowering the rpms and pulling the disengage lever sounds like yours is working right..That is what I'd like to accomplish.------------although, it is much handier on my old antique Ford to just press the clutch petal before engaging the pto lever. Thanks
