Tc40 constantly spinning PTO

[nyone]

My tc40 has developed a problem where the PTO constantly spins. The valve body under the seat that the PTO lever moves does turn. Is there anything to adjust in this or check prior to tearing down?

I was grinding alot of stumps so the PTO does work it just dosnt disengage property. The machine was making a bit of a bad bearing noise or metal on metal noise.

I believe this machine has a pto clutch pack that needs pressure to release? A quick look at the exploded view shows the PTO clutch at the bottom of the trans..does this mean it will need to be totaly disassembled to remove and check?

Explain the part about "was making a bit of bad bearing noise". The noise has stopped? The "PTO constantly spins" came before, during, or after that?

And yes, the tractor will need to come apart to access the clutch pack. It has a spring applied brake setup that releases when the clutch is pressurized to operate. Yours is apparently no longer functioning.

It sounded like a loose washer rattling around. I added fluid to the top of the hash Mark's and it has gone away when PTO off but still makes the noise with PTO on.

Is there any negative to leaving this to repair until warmer weather? The machine will get about 5hr use until then. No PTO attachments will be used. In fact the only PTO attachment I own and will own is being sold.
