Thanks to all the experienced folks posting about the 7000 series tractors.

I bought a 7020 and needed to get it ready to go for haying and bush hogging

but the pto would not shut off.The hints I picked up on here plus using the

service manual got me going.Many thanks!

When using a 7 foot woods rotary mower will I damage the pto clutch

if I don't have an overrunning clutch? What type or brand of clutch do you recommend?

After a couple of years with open station tractors I am loving the quiet cab

and extra convienience of the power shift.

If there is a brake on the pto will it cause excess wear if it is constantly

stopping that much spinning mass?

If you throw it in/out all the time, I suspect you sure wouldn't do the PTO brake any good. Best to have the engine at slow idle to shut down the PTO. OR, get an overrunning clutch on the mower.

I am looking for a clutch. A&I have 1 rated at 75 hp.Hopefully

that is stout enough.
