Gears are worn you may need to open it up and replace any and all worn parts on the PTO.

NO gears involved in the PTO, just a shift collar.

The most common reason for the PTO popping "out of gear" is a loose rear PTO shaft bearing that lets the shaft "walk" back and forth, eventually sliding the collar out of engagement.

Third Party Image

Key # 2 is the drive spline, Key #6 is the shift collar that slides over it to engage the PTO.

A worn detent in the shift rail, Key #7 or spring # 19, or ball # 20 being damaged can make it latch poorly, as well.

Well, shoot yea! My wife is a Clemson, excuse me "ClemPson" grad. I live about 20 miles south of Greenville. I remeber the tiger paws on the exit and along 76 when I was a kid. Dont get that way much, even though my Mom lives in Anderson, I usually come 76 to Anderson from Hickory Tavern.
