Assuming you have a band style PTO (I think they had two styles depending on Production Date.)
Simple as I can make it.
Make sure the lever and linkage is free of lost motion and bad woodruff keys.
Place the lever exactly mid way between the two latched positions.
The PTO shaft should turn (with nothing hooked to it)by hand.
Tighten the forward adjustment lock and screw until the band is tight and the shaft wont turn (by hand with good effort)
Loosen it until the band is loose enough to turn freely (just enough, not 2 turns)
Do the same for the rear adjuster.
Now try moving the lever to the operate position.
It should pull harder at the last few inches of travel, and lock in nicely. If it pulls hard enough that it seems wrong, the band is too tight.
Do the same for the brake band (off).
If the adjusters are almost down to level with the top of the lock nuts, there isn't much band left.
Best of luck, JimN
