PTO

thanks in advance

However....I must be missing somthing. I have the old 1-1/8 pto shaft, and I purchase an OCR from Value bilt a while back. It came with a roll Pin.
The OCR slides on nice. But I can't see how the roll pin comes into play. I Have a Ford 2N. there is a hole in the PTO shaft that the roll pin fits, but then what?

thanks

The OCR has two grease fittings on the PTO side. Use a wrench to take both off. Slide the OCR onto the PTO and align the holes. Slide the roll pin shuch that it is evenly spaced on both sides. Re-install the grease fittings and grease it up.

The pin is there as another layer of protection if you hit a stump and instantly stop the blades. Thus you will shear the pin and your PTO gears will be protected.

The only "trick" if you call it that, is if you have the older 1-1/8 PTO and you have an adaptor to run your bush hog. Then remove that and get the 1-1/8 to 1-3/8 OCR and let it do both the size adapton and safety job.

Even with a non-high momentum implement like a finish mower I like the OCR.

Jeff.

I have a Ford 2N with the 1-1/8 pto. I bought the OTC from value bilt awhile back. It came with a roll pin. the OTC fits on the 1-1/8 pto, slides on tight. for the life of me, I don't see how the roll pin comes into play, it fits in the hole on the PTO shaft, but this prohibits the OTC from sliding on. What's the trick?

thanks in advance

It is a device which connects the driveline when the Tractor PTO is running at a speed equal to the implement, but disconnects the driveline when the Tractor PTO is running slower than the implement. This device is very handy when using an implement like a brush mower. The inertia developed by the mower's flywheel is able to keep the tractor moving even with the clutch depressed.

Some say that an ORC is not necessary with a belt driven implement like a finish mower. I run with one on my 2N for finish and brush mowing.
