Current project tractor is a little Mitsubishi S470D 4wd diesel with a bad transmission that I?m re building. This tractor has a 3 speed PTO?.. 540 rpm, 820 and 1300. One of the damaged gears is the 820rpm PTO gear.
I?m used to bigger stuff so not really familiar with compacts. Would I ever need 820 rpm PTO speed for any attachments that might be available for this little tractor?
I?m thinking I could probably save the $$$ for this gear and turned the teeth down on a lathe or grinder, so it just becomes a spacer. Would this work?
It appears this same tractor was also re badge in the early 80's by Case and sold as their model 234, and the Case version only has 540 rpm PTO. Looking at the Case parts diagram for this tractor, it looks like the higher PTO gears were replaced buy a ?PTO Clutch? which is probably just a spacer.
Thanks,
