Examine the PTO shaft for in and out movement. If it will move in and out that is your problem. The bearing is moving in the housing or the bearing is moving on the shaft and either will cause it to jump out of gear.

Drain the oil from the differential in a five gallon container.

Remove the four bolts that hold the PTO housing to the back of the tractor and pull the PTO out and see what is the cause of the movement in and out.

If you have a cliper, depth micrometer, dial indicator with mag base, etc. You can check this without disassembly. Just pull it all the way out as hard as you can, take a measurement, and push it in, take another and do the math. Mine has about .030 play. It also comes out soetimes, but mostly with implements that don't have a well balanced PTO shaft. Is the shaft on your mower phased properly? (the yolks on the shaft should be 90 deg apart from each other)

Hank..... ...there is a "ball-detent" in the tranny PTO shifter housing that sometimes gets loose (and lost). Depending upon your irritability tollarance, most just use a rubber bungee to hold PTO shifter lever in position..... ...Dell
