Problem with Pasquale 986 Tractor
The PTO speed selector is jammed and will not rotate(fwd or back) or move L to R(in or out of the front gear box). It seems to be jammed in the out position ( to the Left), with 3/8�,9mm space between the shoulder on the selector axle and the left side of the gear box, and in neutral ( PTO does not rotate with engine running ). If the retaining bolt directly opposite, on R side of gearbox, is loosened the selector axle can be mover out (left) an additional ��,6mm, revealing the seal on this axle, but it will still not rotate fwd or back. The jamm is very firm . Rocking it L to R and fwd and back has work-hardened and broken the bolt which retains the outer, concentric shifter handle and its concentric sleeve on the selector axle. Repeatedly tapping it in and out with a rubber hammer after use of penetrating oil has not worked, including with clutch in and out, and in all gears. The PTO at rear of the tractor rotates freely in both directions.
Q1. Does anybody know (a) what causes this problem and (b) the solution ? Obviously I would prefer not to disarticulate the tractor and remove rear cover of the front gear box, in which cover the PTO selector axle is located, if this can be avoided ?
Q2. Can anyone share an illustration/diagram of the arrangement of this axle inside the rear cover of the front gear box . My service manual does not show it, and my parts list seems to be for a different model.
Q3. Apart from the retaining bolt and a roll pin, should there be any additional parts retaining the outer, concentric sleeve and handle(lever) on the PTO selector axle ?
Q4. If the retaining bolt on the R side is completely removed, and the PTO selector axle is drawn even further out ( to the left), (a) will this help free it up, and (b) can the axle then be easily slid back into place ?
I�d appreciate advice , and a copy of the diagram/illustration of the internal arrangement of the PTO speed selector on the 986.

Today's Featured Article - A Lifetime of David Brown Tractors - by Samuel Kennedy. I was born in 1950 and reared on my family�s 100 acre farm. It was a fairly typical Northern Ireland farm where the main enterprise was dairying but some pigs, poultry and sheep were also kept. Potatoes were grown for sale and oats were grown to be used for cattle and horse feeding. Up to about 1958 the dairy cows were fed hay with some turnips and after that grass silage was the main winter feed. That same year was the last in which flax was grown on the farm. Flax provided the fibre which w
