Kubota L4740 PTO will not shut off, tractor has 170 hrs, I split tractor to remove PTO clutch pack, clutch disc and steel plates welded together, clutch pack shows heat present. Replaced clutch pack,seals gaskets,filters and fluid. Kubota repair manual describe's checking and adjusting Pressure Reducing Valve. I purchased a digital pressure gauge, specs show PTO engaged, Eng, @ Max speed, you should have 334 - 362psi, I have 280psi. I only use this tractor for plowing snow and the PTO for spreading cinders from a HERD spreader, the PTO clutch has been slipping from day one, using the PTO spreader, I wouldn't notice any slippage until as it did build up heat and weld the disc together. I have replaced all parts and adjusted the Pressure Reducing Valve to 350psi, and have over $1600.00 in bills and many hours labor for a problem that I had no control over.
