I went through the B2650 work shop manual, and I cannot find a simple answer to this question.
I've learned that PTO gear backlash is normal and produces the "clanking/vibration/rattling noise I was concerned about. Thank you to those who replied to my question.
I would now like to know how much free rotation is acceptable in the PTO output shaft. I assume that this is dependent upon the amount of backlash present in the gears, and would be a good indicator of whether or not the backlash is within spec. I have to believe that too much backlash is not a good thing.
