...you have gotten to the crux of the nub.

Quote: "Dell, yer self-appointed SAFETY PREACHER preachin' the gospel of ORC's on PTO's for brushhoggin'"

Aaron, you don't say in your post whether you are running a brush-hog-three point mower-or not when it won't stop quickly.

With many Fords, the momentum of the blade on the mower pushes the tractor forward quite a ways, even if the wheels are locked up.

This is one of the biggest causes of accidents among newly-minted brush-hoggers.

The device Dell recommends, an over-run clutch, can prevent many such accidents. In addition, it doesn't hurt to habitually disengage the PTO every time the tractor is stopped.

At the time I was using a brush hog. I hadn't thought of the brush hog momentum as a possible cause for this. I take it that it acts as a big flywheel? I have it disconnected now so I will have to take the tractor out and see how it stops without it. Hopefully that was the cause and will save me a bit of work. Thanks again for all the great tips.
