I was heading out the door to put a wiring harness on the Loboy when I answered your post. Too cold out there after yesterday so back in with more time. Let me elaborate. Wardner gave you a great answer, here is how it works in application. I cut and bale hay with an SMTA. There is a mile of road between home and hayfield. Years ago I trimmed all the branches so I could drive on the road edge and not catch my cutter bar. I have a midmount mower and I routinely activate the PTO on the way down to lop off the green shoots that stick out every summer. I also shut the mower on and off in the field if I have to and same with the baler if moving from place to place. All without hitting the clutch.
The flip side of that coin is when I am baling and see the baler getting overloaded. I can hit the clutch and take her out of gear and the PTO continues to operate until the baler is clear. Then I put her back in gear and continue. The PTO never stops. Get it? HTH
