I am in the process of going through the clutch pack, brake, springs, bearings and seals on my engine driven PTO powershaft. All these parts are new. Once I tighten the 3 bolts that attach the shims and PTO brake plate to the housing per the JD service manual there is absolutely no way of turning either shaft. I know the new springs are supposed to give 700 lbs of down force which is a lot but have not done one of these before, should you be able to turn shafts and is this normal or have I missed something? I still have to make the adjustment to the cam and cltches, but wanted to get some experienced opinions before buttoning up everything and giving me peace of mind knowing that I got it right! As always, I appreciate any and all replies or advice.
Thank you!
Gordon

| The shaft will not release until the clutch is engaged. On the 60 adjust the clutch pack when it is engaged to .060 on the bottom side of the brake pad. Take 2 big screwdrivers and engage the clutch. Bolt securely in vise to hold it down. Hint, line up the clutch pack, engage with screwdrivers and install with the clutch engaged. Do not lose the thrust washer, it is 17.00. Russ

| Sounds right ot me. Those have alot of brake force when all is new. That's why they changed them on the late 20 series and 30 series to have a neutral spot so you could disengage the pto clutch and not have that brake come on right away leading to early burn out.
