machine with the PTO engaged, the PTO will
shut off. Make sure the PTO is in the

start the engine.
2.
Start the engine. See page 39.
3.
Reduce the engine speed.
Tip:
Do not engage the PTO system at higher engine
RPM with the attachment under load. Always engage
the PTO system at a lower engine RPM and with the
attachment under a no load condition.

On the PTO switch, press the center button and
then pull up on the knob to engage the PTO.
5.
The light in the dash will illuminate and the
