The owner explains what non-live PTO means practically, compares it to old tractors and his prior Kubota, discusses when it might matter (snow blowers, rotary cutters in heavy grass), demonstrates engaging the clutch with a rear cutter attached, and notes the tractor also lacks mid-PTO.
Posted by the RSM Stuff channel, an owner sharing hands-on impressions and answering a viewer's question about his own tractor.
No, it does not have live PTO, but it has a brake or over-running clutch so it will not push the tractor forward when the clutch is disengaged.
No, unlike an 8N or 9N, this tractor has an over-running clutch so it will not push the tractor when you disengage the clutch.
No, it does not have a mid-PTO, so you can't put a mower deck under it or run a front-mounted snow blower off mid PTO.
It can be a concern since you must stop, put it in neutral, let off the clutch, let the snow blower clear, then go back into gear.
