Option 2.
Take off easy then throttle up.
No reason to slip the clutch

Which means the implement won't affect the driving part of the tractor, like how it happens with transmission driven PTOs where it pushes the tractor even with the clutch pedal pressed. You don't really have to worry much about it.From the owners manual and the parts diagram it looks like the 5105's independent PTO does not have an overrun clutch or a brake. I'll keep that in mind while operating it.
Haven't even transmission driven PTO's had internal over run clutch's to solve that problem since the 1950's or 60's.Which means the implement won't affect the driving part of the tractor, like how it happens with transmission driven PTOs where it pushes the tractor even with the clutch pedal pressed.

Sure but there were still made plenty of tractors made without internal overrunning clutch well beyond that time frame.Thats what I thought.
The problem of pushing a tractor through the PTO driveline was pretty much solved 60 years ago.
Yes they did over 60 years ago.Sure but there were still made plenty of tractors made without internal overrunning clutch well beyond that time frame.
when you're running a PTO implement do you 1. raise the rpms to PTO speed 2. slip the clutch to get the tractor moving. Or do you use the foot throttle to get just enough rpms to get in motion, like you would with a manual transmission car or truck, and then raise the rpms to PTO speed as you're moving?
Thanks! ... Yes, backfeeding of power from the implement does happen on engine slowdown when there is no overrunning clutch. I have several tractors without this one way feature though, and much prefer their operational characteristic. The ability to slow down the implement with engine braking and to briefly employ the implement as a flywheel has always been a pleasant feature if you live with an understanding of it. Ive seen no evidence of any harm over thousands of use hrs on independent PTO tractors with std gear selected PTO and gear transmission.Sure. Just like you say, it's all about inertia/momentum... or spinning anything heavy and fast.
