Been looking through the site but have not come across a problem like ours.

We have a early 70's 1855 tractor and we are having problems with the PTO. Right now we are into winter and have a snowblower hooked up, and we can't get the PTO to start up.

It seemed to work fine in the warmer weather, and we got one pass down the lane, but then it quit.

The blower will spin by hand, so nothing should be locked up.

Also the oil's and filters were all changed last summer.....

Any help and direction to fix this problem would be helpful.

Thanks everyone, I'll check the levels again, and make sure everything is shifted right.

Is it possible that we need to bleed out the system more?

Is your hydraulic system full?Dipstick at rear of tractor behind seat.PTO is engaged with hydraulic pressure.Did you change the hydraulic oil and if so, what did you re-fill it with?

Did you recently shift it from 540 to 1000 or 1000 to 540? If you shifted it rihgt before hooking onto the snow blower, it could be that it didn't shift all the way and it just felt like it did.loosen the screw that holds the shifter tight, and try shifting it again while rocking the PTO shaft by hand. When it's shifted fully you shouldn't be able to spin it anymore by hand.

I've had this happen a couple times on me, and it always has the same symtoms. After working the shifter a second time it is shifted all the way and all problems are gone.

The other thing I can think of is that the splines maybe gone on the long drive shaft that goes up to the front of the engine, but there wou;d be more symptoms along with that cause.
