using pto to move tractor?

clampdaddy · Mar 3, 2014

I have a G that runs but doesn't have a working clutch. I need to back it into a different spot in the yard. I can't tow it backwards because it needs to go up against the shop. There's a bunch of stuff in front of it so I don't want to have to move it all out of the way and then put it all back afterwards. You think I could rig up a hand crank and hook it to the PTO shaft and manually crank it to move the tractor?

I used a 15" Crescent wrench.

Slow, but faster than getting 3 friends together to help push.

Now that has me thinking. We have an electric high torque gear reduction motor used for driving anchor augers into the ground. I bet that I could probably hook up to the PTO to power the tractor.

Why not get some 2 in. steel tube , weld two straps on each end to push/pull it where you want to go . I made an extra end to bolt to the front wheels so one person can tow it . Doesn't work real well to go backwards but you can do it . I made mine long enough to hook to a 4-wheel drive to push or pull . A good thing to have to help stop it as well.
