i do gingerly engage the PTO it chatters a bit but i just keep the clutch in until it coasts down and then engage. but being 54 years old (I was wrong before its a 1969 model) who knows how its been used. My wife's grandfather bought it new but was not a mechanic and when he had stuff fixed seems like it was either someone that was not knowledgeable or just plum the cheapest around or some combination thereof since the 2 can go hand in hand.
the picture is of the lever. as i mentioned someone modified/repaired it by welding the handle to a plate and then used Ubolt to attach the lever to the shaft. it works but i wonder if the Ubolt is in the right spot as sometimes the PTO jumps out of gear so i wonder if its fully engaged if the handle is not in the right clock position to the shaft. Luckily its pretty easy to move the lever so i can just grab the U-bolt threads and engage it since the weld broke.
my lever is the one with the dog leg and a plastic knob on the top.

I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”. I’m par
