Mahindra Max 28xl PTO

When tilling the garden my PTO would randomly stop I didn’t hit anything and the garden has been tilled many times over the years. If I push the clutch in it would start back up again. It’s never done this in all the years I’ve had the tractor

Just a bump. Was hoping to get a response

Are you sure it is the PTO vs a clutch on the tiller. My tiller clutches out sometimes underload (hitting a big rock or large root).

PTO quiting, to me that would be split the tractor and repair.???

If the tiller has an over running clutch on it, it's possibly slipping or the plates are shot and need replaced.

It’s definitely the pto on the tractor that stopped. If I push the clutch in and let it out it restarts. I have some tilling to do this weekend so I will check again. I also adjusted the slip clutch on the tiller and verified that is working

If it's the pto clutch that has failed, that is a big ouch.
