Let's say you are baling hay, and the windrow
gets a little thick. The baler starts bogging
down, too much hay for the speed you are
moving. So, you push in the clutch to stop
moving. Without live pto, THE BALER ALSO STOPS
getting power. So it plugs up, and you are
sitting there digging hay out of the baler on a
hot day. (Yes, a person learns to plan ahead,
& you can shift quick to get by, but it's a chore.) With live pto, you push the clutch in part way to
stop moving forward. But the baler keeps
getting power, & clears out the hay, & you can
either shift down to a slower gear, or continue
on. With independent pto, you can shift either the
tractor tranny or the pto shaft in & out of gear at
any time, totally independent of each other.
This is really nice. But practically, the live
2-stage clutch is really good too, and people
have mis-used & interchanged these terms
sometimes. An over-running coupler is just like a socket
set rachet - it locks up in one direction, & lets
the implement freewheel in the other. You want live - whether 2-stage or
independent. --->Paul
