You do not have to split the tractor. It is easier if the tractor does not already have a 3 point hitch on it. The parts are heavy. What you do is first remove the cab right side glass to gain access behind the control console. Then you assemble the pto mechanical parts and install. It is mechanically actuated. You also have to go into the computer and tell the tractor there is a pto on it. Then you remove the plate on the back side of the transmission and basically assemble a stub shaft that comes out under the cab. Next you install the clutch assembly under the step behind the cab. This area is called the gudgeon. Then you use a special tool to check alignment with the clutch assembly with the output shaft you put in on the back side of the transmission. After the two are aligned correctly you install the driveline from the transmission output shaft to the clutch assembly. This is a good time to install the hydraulic hoses. The pto clutch is mechanically engaged but it uses hydraulic pressure to engage and hold the clutch pack. Also you install and adjust the clutch control cable from the handle in the cab to the clutch. Then you install the pto gear box. Then you install hydraulic lines to the gearbox. Then you install the driveshaft from the clutch to the gearbox. Then you grease and install shields and safety decals. I can do one in two days by myself at the dealership. First one probably would take four days. Especially without having the special tools. I have done one without the tools. The pto comes in a kit form. The hardware is in a big bag and you have to pay attention what hardware goes where. If your dealer wants to do it let them. A John Deere dealer can print off the assembly instructions for you and for your transmission type. It probably would make more sense than what you've just read. I use a forklift and boom to install and lift the drop box and clutch. Good luck and have fun.

Today's Featured Article - Tractor Hydraulics - The Basics - by Curtis Von Fange. Hydraulics was one of the greatest inventions for helping man compound the work he can do. It’s amazing how a little floor jack can lift tons and tons of weight with just the flick of a handle. What’s even more amazing is that all the principals of hydraulic theory can be wrapped up in such a small package. This same package applies to any hydraulic system from the largest bulldozer to the oldest and smallest tractor. This short series will take a look at the basic layout of a simple hydraul
