Hello. I just picked up an IH 254 compact tractor. My question is on the PTO. According to TractorData.com, this model should have a live PTO. However, in practice, the PTO disengages when the clutch pedal is pressed all the way down. I had read that some machines used a dual clutch set-up, where you pressed the clutch down half way to disengage the transmission while the PTO kept turning. The only way the PTO would disengage would be if you pressed the clutch all the way down. I tried this on my tractor, and it did not work, as both the transmission & PTO disengaged & engaged at the same points.
Can anybody say for sure how this PTO is supposed to work?
Thanks.
Mike
