pto grinding

I am assuming you have a gear drive (9 speed) tractor which has a 2 position clutch. Half way down stops forward motion and fully depressed disengages the pto(s). It is possible for the pto clutch to be rusted or stuck to the plate and not disengaging (lack of use). A possible cure would be to attach a pto driven implement (rear or mid), engage the pto with the tractor OFF. depress the clutch fully and start the tractor. You will probably have to override the safety circuits with a jumper to start with the pto engaged. good luck!

Not to be condescending, you are depressing the clutch petal before you engage the PTO lever?

yes even if I hold it in for a few seconds still grinds

Another similar posting said: "The screw that is a stop for the clutch pedal had worked it way out not letting me push the clutch in all the way. Screwed it in some more and now works great."

To the OP....If you are in gear and the hydro peddle is being pressed so you are moving, will your clutch peddle stop your movement?

Yes it will stop me it works "normal" in every other respect.
