Look on the overrunnig clutch and verify if on one side you have a threaded 1/4 plug and on the opposite side a grease fitting. Provided this is correct remove either the plug or grease fitting and mount the clutch on the pto shaft and align the cross hole in the pto shaft with the cross hole in the clutch. Insert a split pin through the clutch cross hole and pto cross hole. This pin should be long enough to engage both sides of the clutch housing. Replace the removed plug or grease fitting to prevent the pin from coming out. The pin is now captive within the clutch housing and is through the pto shaft thus locking the clutch onto the tractor. I like to sand the split pin down to where it is a slip fit and when I need to remove the clutch I just take out the plug and grease fitting and push the pin through and out with ease. The tractor should handle the mower horsepower wise and you may have to weight the front of the tractor.
