966 PTO

Bought a 966, mostly for loader work and some ground work, but on Sat. tried to engage the pto, and it won't go. What are the first things I can look at as possible problems. The only reason I tried it, was to see if it would work. The only thing that I would use it on, would be a snow blower (if I upgrade to a larger one) and possible a square baler to do some custom baling when I get it fixed
 
Won't go? Engaging mechanism locked up or unhooked somewhere?
Open station or cab?
All attached, oil, filter, pickup tube screen, check pressure.
 
Add hydraulic oil. Our 9 does the same thing about once a year when it gets a little low. All it does is auger work anymore so I imagine the problem will continue. Be sure to have a funnel, otherwise you will have a mess in your cab and an unhappy wife when you track HY-Tran on the living room carpet!
 
is this the first time you've tried to use the pto? like others have said, hyd oil could be low. if it was run that way with a load, the clutch pack is probably smoked.

another common problem is the tiny pin in the control valve spool. if you disconnect the external linkage, try lifting the control valve out the top of the pto housing. if you can pull it out, that's the problem. the spool is a 2 piece thing that is supposed to go out the bottom. to do that you either have to pull the pto or the hitch parts that are in the way. the pin is a couple bucks from the IH dealer.
