Was using my D17 Series III to move equipment around in a shed when abruptly I lost any connection from the engine to the wheels. Was not connected to any equipment and only heard a little click. This transmission had a new third gear and mating gear less than 59 hours ago. Any ideas about what might be wrong? Thanks. John

Put the transmission in any gear and the PTO in gear and if the PTO doesn't run, the foot clutch disc ate its pigs.
