[Farmall] Farmall pto

[Barney Van De Weert]

You don't mention if this is a pull type or 3 PT Hitch. If it's a pull type 
you-he should check the phase of the u-joints on the PTO. the 2 halfs should 
have a notch or the square shaft is a rectangle so they cannot be miss 
matched often the button wears off or brakes then someone installs the front 
half a 1/4 turn off. This will cause the symptom youare discribing- the noise 
can travel but mainly ends up comming from the PTO unit or under the seat. The 
U-joints on the 2- 1/2s of the pto shaft should line up, yokes in the same 
direction. Also check the drawbar dementions, from the end of the PTO to the 
center of the pin hole should be 14" on a 540 drive, measured stright back not 
at and angle. Checking these items could save you a lot of money and time.

Subject: [Farmall] Farmall pto

Does anyone on the list know if a Farmall 400, and a Farmall 350 Independent 
PTO will interchange? I have a friend that says his pto on his 350 Farmall 
rowcrop, is really vibrating when he is turning with his brush hog mowing. 
He said it is the pto unit on his tractor, and not the mower making the 
noise. I have a pto unit from a 400, and wondered if they would interchange? 
Thanks, Kevin.
