My neighbors new 4300 pto refuses to shut off. It was in the shop recently for a warranted shim replacement for the clutch, could this be the problem?? Maybe effected when they had the tractor split? Has anyone else been effected by the pto refusing to shut off on the JD 4300 power rev.? The dealership will pick it up Monday but he was curious about the internet board. I will post the problem when he gets his tractor back. Hopefully fixed this time around. regards, Mike

Mike--the PTO has locked up on some of the new 4300 and 4400 tractors and JD is aware of the problem. My 4400's PTO locked up (while engaged) with 8 hours on the hourmeter. The fix required a tear-down of the tractor from the dash back. According to JD, the PTO was set too tight at the factory to release properly. If your neighbor's tractor was manufactured recently, I would be surprised that JD had not corrected this problem during assembly. By reading some of the older postings on the JD part of this forum, you will see that the 4200, 4300 and 4400 tractors had some problems early in their manufacture. Surely by now, JD has eliminated nearly all of these problems that plagued those of us that purchased the earlier models of these tractors (except tire scuffing).Mike S. ....
