PTO Shift Lever Problem.

The PTO shift lever is backwards to the way it should be. When looking at it from the back of the tractor the lever is pointing to the left, and I have to push the PTO lever control rod down to engage the PTO. I unhooked the PTO control rod to see if I could move the shift lever around to the correct position, but can not changed it that way. I suppose I'll have to remove the PTO housing to do this? Anyone have any ideas about this?
 
I think the fork G10677 has jumped one position. I have a 311B that has done that. It has a bracket mounted backhoe that is a major job to get off and pto pump. The hump in the housing prevents the lever from moving the fork into the full engaged detent. I use a chain to keep it engaged to drive the pump. I've run out of backhoe projects and rarely use it.

Does the pin (02058FH) engage the fork when the lever is pulled? From what I see in the parts breakdown it looks like all I need to do is pull the shaft (G10452) rearward and turn it to get the pin in the proper position. Could it be that simple?

I can't answer that, can not get a good grip on mine due backhoe. I have thought to try to move the backhoe just far out of the way to pull the welch plug and have a look in there with a bore scope. I don't know if I can even see the fork from there. With the spring on the back of the fork it may be as simple as pulling it back and turning it.

Let me know if it works.

I'll give it a try sometime tomorrow and report on any results.

I tried prying the PTO shift shaft out with no success. I'm still trying to figure out how it got into this position in the first place. Only thing I can come up with is that someone assembled it the wrong way, and didn't correct the mistake once it was put together.

I really hate the thought of taking it apart right now. It was discovered recently that I have a herniated disc in my thoracic spine. That wasn't the answer I was looking for to the question of why I had pain between my shoulder blades, and my fingers keep going numb at times.
