Economy PTO

[JerryK]

I was just looking up some stuff on the CVT and run into a .pdf file from England. The CVT does not have a mid PTO as of now, but what was interesting is that they will be offering an 'Economy PTO' in the fall of 09. The engine speed with this option is around 1800 @540 and not wound up to 2400. Here is a link to the .pdf...

They have started puting the cvt transmission in all the compacts and in the T7000 series which is 135 hp and up. The have not started to produce any in the mid or utility range yet. It is a neat setup I suggest to drive one they are neat to operate.
