I have some question about proper operation of my rear pto so thst I don't damage anything by doing something wrong.
I have some mowing to do at my new property Friday morning and will be using a 7ft 3 point mower on my 190xt, i have never used the pto before so I just want to make sure I do it right.
Is there a certain method in which I should engage the pto?
Clutch pressed?
Clutch released?
If I press the clutch to stop and switch to reverse will the pto stop?
Do I need to disengage the pto before backing up?
I read that if you place the power director in neutral it allows you to stop the tractor and the pto will remain engaged, I'm assuming this means if I press the foot clutch it will also disengage the pto? Since it's not a "true" live pto?
Any help would be appreciated so I can get my mowing job done without screwing something up due to my lack of operation knowledge, thank you and Iok forward to your responses
