over ride coupling on tiller?

I am going to put a tiller on my 165 MF tractor.
Should I leave the over ride coupling on the PTO shaft or take it off ? I will have to cut the tiller drive shaft either way. My thinking is that the less I cut the shaft the more flexibility I will have to use it on other tractors in the future. Do you all agree ? Thank you.

joe is right, you don"t need an ORC on a 165, they"ve all got live PTO, either dual stage clutch or some have a hydraulic independant PTO, but I"ve only ever seen the dual stage clutch.

If it"s one that you put on the tractor, give it to your buddy with a Ford 9N, he needs it, you don"t. If it is on the tiller, Give it to your buddy to put on his brush hog, tillers don"t spin fast enough to need them.

I would remove the overrunning clutch during tiller use. Why put unnecessary strain on the o.c. when the tiller has no significant flywheel effect anyway and it would increase the driveshaft angle?

Hi

First: You have live PTO (dual clutch) and when you depress the clutch the inertia of the machine will not drive the tractor driveline. If you have IPTO it disengage the PTO directly in the ear end.

I operate a rototiller with a MF0-135 with IPTO
or/and MF-50 dual clutch.

Tilling with an ORC will put unnecessary strain and will produce premature wear on PTO driveline.
