Can't tell from your photo Bob, two cylinder or three? Some older ones came with the TY295 thumper, newer ones have the Y385.

The Taishans made by Shandong tractor works have engines made in house, maked SD295 or SD2100. We have a couple of the water pumps for the 2 cyl in stock.

Hi Group
I have a Tashan 254 and am very lost on the post from DD Mattox. I have a single stage cluch also.Is there some way to make it a two stage?
Thanks for your input
Bob

What makes you think it's NOT a two-stage clutch?

Hi Greg
Why do I have to stop to put the PTO in gear?
Why do I have to have the PTO in gear to raise
or lower the bush hog?
Thanks Bob

Hi Bob, and welcome to TBN.

I'm pretty sure the Taishan 254 is a 2 stage clutch.
With that in mind, stopping to put the PTO in gear would be normal operating technique. In order to disengage the PTO clutch, you press the foot pedal "past" where the first stage would disengage...all the way down. In other words, if you only depressed the pedal half way, you are only disengaging the first stage clutch ... your drive train. The PTO clutch would remain engaged at the 1/2 way mark, but the tractor would stop. To disenge the PTO clutch would require completely depressing the clutch pedal all the way down, which disengages both clutches.

This I don't understand.
Raising or lowering the bush hog is done by the 3pt, right? So it would have nothing to do with having the PTO in gear.
Maybe I am missing your meaning?

I think the pump for the 3 pt. hitch is driven off the pto gears. Is your pump mounted to the rear of the tractor over the pto? If that is the case the pto must be running for the 3 pt. lift to work.
