Sharp looking tractor. I owned a AC 180. I did not think about them not having live PTO until I tried mowing hay the first time. Got to the first corner and hit the clutch to backup promptly plugged the haybine. LOL after digging the rolls out I remembered to use the Hi/Lo to stop while using the PTO. I hated that PTO setup. The AC 180/185 have a really short control lever that is a long reach forward to use. So fine control is hard. So if the tractor is running at high engine RPMs easy engagement is hard to do. The "D" series with the long lever right beside your leg worked well. The bigger AC190s and AC 200s worked better as the lever was longer an closer to the operator. I only kept the AC 180 a few months because my wife refused to run it doing any kind of PTO work.
