    L235 PTO won’t engage

    Pulled front cam and spring. All is good except that I can get it to stick. I’m thinking of just replacing the spring in case it has weakened. Other than that I can’t find anything else wrong. No metal shavings anywhere indicative of excessive wear. Only other option I see is putting it back...

    L235 PTO won’t engage

    cam won’t turn when pto is engaged. However while playing around with the cam on the spring I can get it to stick when the spring is depressed. I think this is my issue. I’ll pull the cam to inspect the back of it.

    L235 PTO won’t engage

    Rear cam turns the pto output, no slipping. Front cam turns the front shaft just fine too. I can try engaging the pto and turning to see if there is resistance. I’m wondering if the spring was stuck and got unstuck during disassembly??

    L235 PTO won’t engage

    Tractor is apart! Problem is the clutch cams seem to be ok. See pics. The forward cam spring seems ok too. I can get the forward cam to rotate the forward shaft and the rear cam to rotate the rear shaft. Only thing I can figure is they spread apart somehow and aren’t making contact.

    L235 PTO won’t engage

    Ok I got the eight bolts holding the transmission together. I removed hardware for the steps, brakes, and hydraulic hoses. The tractor won’t split. Am I missing anything?

    L235 PTO won’t engage

    that’s kinda what I figured. Haven’t split a tractor before though so just curious if it would be a clean split right there or if there would be shafts that I need to watch out for while doing it.

    L235 PTO won’t engage

    I have a 80’s model L235 2wd and while i was bushhogging hit something that sheered the sheer pin on the PTO shaft. Afterwards the PTO output shaft spins freely by hand but the tractor will not turn it. I drained the fluids and opened up the view port underneath the tractor which does turn when...
