am i damaging yhe pto brake??????

[NHeuro]

When i am mowing i lower my rpm fast, my hand throttle is at 1500 rpm and i give more throttle with my foot throttle (to +- 2200)
When i need to reverse, i drop the rpm fast (to 1500) so i protect my clutch (it wears faster at higher rpm said my dealer)

My question:
- When i lower my rpm fast, is this bad for my pto.
I've an other system as an tc 45 d(a), i chose a pto speed and start, when i stop i put it into N and it stops this is comparable with a normal gear transmission.

- When i lower my rpm from 2200 to 1500, is there a big difference in clutch wear?

Thanks

I would not worry about wearing the clutch by only changing the rpm.

Engauging the pto at a high prm will cause more wear, but also consider the load on the engine at a low rpm.

Did this help?
