On non-live pto tractors, the pto shaft & the rear axle are interlocked. if the pto shaft is driven by a flywheel type implement slowing down (like a heavy brush hog) the implement will end up driving the rear wheels even if you push in the clutch. This is where you need an overrunning coupler. It allows the pto to continue spinning without engine power as the flywheel effect, but works like a socket ratchet to not drive the rear axle.

A live pto already has 2 seperate clutches for the axle & the pto so this feature is 'built in' to the design.
