The 1923 M-D 10-20 my great grandfather bought new had the pto and it was wishbone not spline, They used to drive a early sprayer. We pulled it and put it on the shelf when we restored it because it was right at your feet and being like a wishbone it would have not been very for giving to get into. [Reply]   [No Email]

Do you have any pictures of it?? That is interesting... I know what you mean about the PTO shaft! As we towed this tractor out of the crowd of other stuff so I could load it, I realized the PTO was in gear as it started spinning up against my pant leg! I can just imagine putting in a long day working it hard - and coming in around dark just wanting to get some supper and rest - and slip and get a pant leg in it... Howard [Reply]  [No Email]

It was high pressure sprayer for fogging peaches. Over the years I have looked and never come across a pto shaft assembly of that early style laying around anywhere. [Reply]  [No Email]
