I thought I posted this yesterday but don't see it so I'll post again.
I've owned this 4210 for three years and never needed to use the PTO until yesterday when I connected the recently acquired Taylor Ways Backhoe. The PTO controlled with a pull/push knob located on the right side besides the 3 pt slide control.

I recently had a much higher cost experience with another brand that had the machine been run near normal hours it would have happened during warranty period.
