Satoh Buck PTO speeds

[evan price]

The tach for my Buck isn't marked as to what RPM I should hold the motor at for PTO speed. I run it around 2000 rpm normally.

Also, what are the 3 speeds on the PTO roughly? 1st is probably 540, what are the other 2?

According to the manual, at 2700 rpm:

First..........565
Second......832
Third........1,000

Standard PTO speed: 540 pto rpm/2,580 engine rpm (first)
1,000 pto rpm/1979 engine rpm (third)
