Live PTO is PTO independent of forward motion. The N fords don't have it. If you run a mower with them and try to stop, the mower PTO is coming off the intermediate shaft of the transmission and will push the tractor, unless you use an overrunning clutch. If you want to lift a load on the 3 point (the hydraulic pump is on the same PTO shaft) without moving the tractor, you have to stop and shift the transmission out of gear. Then let out the clutch to make the PTO run.s

Not having live PTO is inconvenient and unless you use the overruning clutch on the mower not having live PTO can be hazardous.
