I need help finding the rear PTO safety switch on my JD 4300 SyncReverser. I have spent too much time searching the internet for a picture and looking through my Technical Manual. I have read that it is right under your left but cheek when you are sitting on the tractor but I think that person was thinking of the seat safety. I have removed the covers and the seat and I still can not see it. A picture would really help.
Thanks, Mars

The link did not take me to the correct picture. Will I have to remove the fender to get to the switch?

It doesn't look like it to me.

The link takes me to where I was at on Deere's site. Did you click on it, then go to the picture to the right click and drag the bar at the side and the bottom to move the picture around so that you can see everything? You can also click and copy it, then paste it in an e-mail to look at much larger and all together.

Also, in the column to the left, there are a ton of choices for wiring diagrams etc all listed under pictorial index. The one I posted the link to shows the main wiring harness and where it runs.

Did you click on it, then go to the picture to the right.

Now that I am logged into JD parts your link shows a picture of the wiring diagram that I have seen before and it is not very helpful. Previous to this information request I spent many hours searching with google, looking over the parts diagrams at jdpc.deere.com, reading my John Deere Technical Service Manual and reading other TractorByNet threads. I have a replacement PTO Switch so I know what the switch looks like. I recently had the entire left side of the tractor dissembled to change the axle seal and I did not see the PTO safety.

Does anyone have a picture of the actual location of the PTO safety?
