The pto has to have power to stay engaged. The pto as you call it is just electrical magnets.

If so, you may want to buy a new battery. If the battery is fully charged, even if the voltage regulator is bad it should run and engage the blades. The only thing that would happen is that after a while the battery would lose its charge. This post is from past experience on a JD 111 I once had. Good luck.
