Good morning everyone. ? for you, what is the rotation of my B7100 rear PTO? It's a geared transmission. I want to start purchasing PTO driven implements soon but don't want to be stuck with $$$'s worth of pieces that I can't use. Any advice/help would be greatly appreciated.
Thx and have a safe and blessed day.

Standing behind the tractor looking at the PTO shaft it rotates clockwise. You would probably have to look pretty hard to find equipment that functions by rotating the opposite direction.

On Kubota equipment the B6000 rotates counter clockwise and is a difficult mower to find.

Thanks for the reply. That's a load off my mind. I'd heard horror stories of ccw rotation. Looks like I'm in the clear. Thanks again.

Stick to 4' stuff - 5' will be a little rich to pick up and or use! ;):)

Good point. I will definitely keep that in mind. I do have 100 lbs of suitcase weights for the front in hopes of keeping the front axle out of the clouds. Thx for the reply.
