In general it looks good-- The pto lever does slip out-- previous owner had a strap to hold it in gear. That's fine to start but is there a way to adjust/fix? Thanks [Reply]   [No Email]

Take it off and you'll see 3 sets of 2 bolts. Loosen them and take out a shim or 2 from each set. [Reply]  [No Email]

I had a little trouble getting the cover back on-- making everything match up. It still pops out-- if anything, it seems a little worse. It used to have a feeling of going in gear--- not quite a snap but a click. Now it will engage if you hold the lever forward but there is nothing to hold it there. Have I done something wrong? Should I be adding shims instead of taking away? Thanks for any help-- [Reply]  [No Email]
