HELP!
I have a clutch type thing attached to my pto and it fell off while i was bush hoging. Can I reattach this? If so, how. If not how do i reattach a new one so it will not fall off. Does it just slide on or is there something that should keep it held onto the pto? Any advice is much appriciated as this is my first tractor. Thank you.

Doug, You are probably talking about the overrun coupler. It is held on by a roll pin 5/16"x 2"long,that attaches the inside of the coupler to the PTO shaft. To access the hole, remove the two grease fittings or plugs in the coupler, align the hole inside with the outside holes and put on PTO and align the holes in coupler with the hole in PTO shaft. The pin may have sheared, if so you will have to remove the pieces in the coupler and the PTO shaft before reinstalling. Inspect the coupler for excessive wear, replace if in doubt. But for safety sake use one.....Jay

Doug..... .ah yes, the "Over-Running Coupler" on the PTO shaft is very necessary safety item when brush-hoggin'.

There are 2 types of ORC's, one that is "pinned" by a roll pin through the PTO shaft and is covered up by the greese fitting/s. The other type is less common and is push-button coupled to the PTO shaft. And the brush-hog is inturn push-button coupled to the ORC shaft.

I suspect that your ORC has "eaten" its snap-ring that keeps the two parts together and while you may be lucky to find a snap-ring to fit, I would be suspishious of the "guts" of your old ORC. For about $60 you can get a new ORC and be certain that it is good to go. Remember to occasionally "greese" your ORC

Hope this helps, the self-appointed ORC safety preacher..... ..Dell
