this is a wide open question.......kinda like what oil is what.....

but I'll tell you this..............those blades are meant so spin at a certain rate....
and something like 1500 engine rpm ....AINT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!

you want to hurt your engine? run it a low rpm cause those that believe lower is better!!! To answer your question - run it at 2800-3200 rpm, that is up there near WOT, and that is where the engine is meant to be run....trust me!

Engage the pto at low rpm then crank it up to to wfo for mowing

The correct answer is in the owners manual, but as stated above engage and disengage at low RPM. There is a yellow mark on the tachometer, that indicates 540 RPM at the rear PTO, and 2100 (or 2000 I forget which) RPM at the mid-PTO. This is the proper speed to run your mower, but a little faster won't hurt.

Thanks to all. I was running around 2500. I’ll bump it up.

Just tried using my MMM on the LX2610. 2653 rpm is as high as it would go.
Any suggestions?

At that RPM - you are over cooking your grits!!! Top end should be @2500 and you 540 is:
