PTO Shaft Help

How do you replace the the push pin stop on the end of a PTO shaft? I have a woods brush hog and the end of the shaft that connects to the tractor - the push pin spring is broke. How do you get the push pin out to replace the spring?

bad,

I think that different manufacturers use different ways of holding the pin into the end of the pto shaft. I replaced one on my NH 273 baler some time ago and it was a simple matter of removing a c-clip and removing the pin/spring. However, I replaced one on my Big Bee brush hog a while back. It had come out of the shaft on its own. The pto shaft had to be peened over to hold the replacement pin in. So, I think you'll just have to look carefully at your implement and decide exactly what needs to be done.

Good luck,

There are different styles. An old style with the thumb pin sticking out both sides id considered dangerous, and is replaced with a different style these days. Farm supply stores & good implement dealers have 3 or so different repair packs to repair most of them.

Basically you need to open the C clip, or tap out the compression cap, or otherwise get the old pin out, and put in new parts you find 'somewhere'.

I have a Vermeer baler where none of the standard repair packs fit, I need to talk to a dealer & find out what fits there.
