Agreed on the PTO statement. The only time I've seen the PTO become an issue isn't so much the power from the tractor, but the heavy out of balance (bent?) shaft on the impliment. I too have seen some feed grinders (especially with ear corn or hay) and silage cutters test the HP ratings of 1466 and 1486 tractors and the weak point wasn't the PTO.

Where the PTO fails is when somebody hooks a big shredder up to tractor that has a a bent shaft then wonders why it snapped while turning under load.
