Peter,
The problem is that you need a way to keep the mower running when you stop the tractor. In your tractor that is called an Independent PTO.
You should have driven a tractor that had a direct connected PTO and did NOT have an over running PTO. Many a person mowed up to a fence, pushed in the clutch, and the mower PUSHED them right through the fence! There are NO current production tractors that I am aware of made that way anymore. There was an attachment that you could put on the PTO to allow them to continue to run when the tractor was stopped and this allowed the pto driven device to run faster than the PTO was turning.
