Handling the levers
1. Before handling both the levers, set the PTO clutch
control switch to the OFF (disengage) position.
2. To shift, hold down the shift lever and move it to the
desired position. If the lever is not pushed down, it
remains locked and no gear shift can be made.
3. When returning the lever to the neutral position,
there is no need to push it down.

IMPORTANT :
• For maximum PTO shaft speeds of various
implements, see the implement operator’s
manual.
4. 1000 rpm PTO shaft (if equipped)
WARNING
To avoid personal injury or death:
• Be sure to observe the PTO shaft speed
prescribed for the individual implements. It is
extremely dangerous to run an implement at
high speed that is meant to be operated at low
speed. Use only when this higher rpm is
specifically recommended by the implement
manufacturer.
For replacement with a 21-spline 1000-rpm PTO shaft,
observe the following procedure.
(1) PTO shaft
(2) Bolt (A) 540 rpm PTO shaft
(B) 1000 rpm PTO shaft
PTO shaft interchanging procedure
The 6-spline 540 rpm PTO shaft is standard equipment.
1. Shifting the 2 PTO levers to an arbitrary position,
lock the PTO shaft to keep it from rotating.
2. Remove the PTO mounting bolts and then remove
the PTO shaft.
3. After cleaning the PTO shaft mounting surface,
mount the 1000-rpm PTO shaft.
Tightening torque: 115 N·m (11.7 kgf·m)
IMPORTANT :
• For maximum PTO shaft speeds of various
implements, see the implement operator’s
manual.
• Implements may be driven at 540 rpm only if
their power input never exceeds 60 kW (82 HP).
5. PTO shaft cover and shaft cap
Keep the rear PTO shaft cover in place at all times. Put
back the PTO shaft cap when the PTO is not in use.
Before connecting or disconnecting a drive shaft to
PTO shaft, be sure engine is
“OFF” .
