Borrowed a 15' three bladed JD bat wing mower yesterday to do so mowing on the CRP strips. With engine just off idle I would engage the pto and it would take about five seconds to get things going. It put a bit of a load on the engine. A couple of times during the day I engaged the pto at mid throttle and I would take a longer time to get it going. Am I safe to assume because of the weight I was starting this is acting normal? I only had one place where I got into some really thick cheat grass it slowed the mower down but didn't really slow the engine down accordingly. The pto was slipping, I could see it was. But based on the load do you guys think there might be a problem with the pto clutches or might the mower be too much of a load in the really heavy stuff. Other than that one time, I mowed thru 3' tall rye and it mowed it just fine.
