Power take off is PTO. A drive shaft sticking out (usually the rear) of a tractor or power unit to drive attachmnets or remote equipment. 540 RPM, and 1000 Rpm are standard speeds loaded to the engines rated HP. A live, or independent PTO (IPTO) is connected to the engine with a smooth operating clutch (and usually a brake for the shaft for stopping it) that allows operation while the tractors main clutch is pushed down. This allows the PTO to continue to operate independently of ground speed and to be able to be stopped without stopping the tractor. Much safer, and desirable in all cased compared to those driven by the transmission, or gears after the main clutch. JimN
