I just noticed something odd about the rear PTO lever. The lever works its way back a little, about 3/8ths of an inch, after about a half hour of use. When I first start it, I always push the clutch in, put it into gear, and then let the clutch out to start the implement and throttle up to PTO speed. When I notice the lever has moved back, I stop and idle down, push the clutch in, push the lever back up all the way, and then let the clutch back out again. I can’t help but wonder if it’s starting to work its way out of gear and is running with the force pushing on just the ends of the teeth on the gears instead of being fully engaged. Is this normal? When I was mowing yesterday it did this twice. I have not yet contacted the dealer about this because I just noticed it, but I will call them soon.

Danny, I would check with the dealer. 3/8 of an inch does not sound like much. Having said that, my 250 hr. TC29D PTO shift lever stays where I put it.
