Hey all, I need some help please. The pto drive on my ford 9700 will not come on when the lever is engaged. Lever working fine. I know that the hi/lo and the pto are on
the same hydraulic line. I can get the pto to come on if I play with the hi/lo pedal on the deck by getting it in between hi and lo, but it will stay on high for a bit
and die off. Seems like I am not getting enough pressure to the pto. I did change both of the filters and in the larger upright filter manifold/ duct there were pieces of
rubber gasket (not O ring)jammed in the spring loaded outlet valve. Are there any in line screen filters that may be clogged before I get into cracking this thing open?
Would a weak piggyback pump cause these symptoms and if so, where could I test the pressure from pump? Thanks to all who can help!
 
Thats what I am thinking. I talked to a local tractor mechanic and he suggested bypassing the dual power completely by capping off line to it, and seeing if it took care of the pto problem. Will this effect the performance of the tractor, or just not allow an overdrive and underdrive???
