Ramon, I can relate. I am guessing you are somewhat new to tractor use, am I right? My Farmall A had the same problem when I first got it and I knew that couldn't be correct. Of course, I had a lot of other problems, so it took me a couple of fixes before I got to that. When I pulled the PTO shaft out of the unit, I did what I usually do to something I haven't played with before: I inspected it.

Listen to these guys, Ramon, they know what they're talking about. I suggest, if you don't have one already, to get a set of files, one for fast removal and one for fine cutting. Use them on flat spots, dinks, cuts and mashes. Check the coupling as well. I have the same old beat up shaft that came with my tractor and I can now hook up and disengage the PTO coupling by pulling it with my hands and sometimes wiggling it a bit. That is, of course, when the whole shaft doesn't come unscrewed from the gear wheel and comes off with the coupler. (see my post about PTO gear trouble.)
