Like california said the overrun feature on a ym240 is in the threepoint gearing itself, unlike a ym2000 where this feature is left out and we ahve to get external devices.
My YM240 came with a John Deere 260 5ft. Finish Mower that does a great job but every time I press on the clutch while the mower is running I have to throttle down and restart, slowly letting out the clutch or it snaps the shear pin (a nut, lock washer n bolt) and I have to shut it down and put another one in. It's getting better as I get used to using the tractor, last cut I only went through 3 and I'm getting pretty fast at installing them, but it's still a pain, any suggestions? I saw this over running clutch that Hoye offers could that help? Yanmar over running clutches
In using a high grade bolt, 1 would hope that you break something on the mower instead of the PTO gears,etc. I think I would try using a slip clutch instead of running rist of breaking something on the tractor using a high grade bolt
