Gear thing? Are you sure you're working on the power take off?

The power take off (PTO) is that splined shaft coming out the back or your tractor. To remove it, you need to remove the four bolts holding the assembly to the rear of the tractor, then just pull it out.

Oh, but you'd better drain some fluid first or you'll have a mess to clean up when you pull the shaft assembly out. Or you could park the front wheels in a ditch if you don't want to drain fluid, but I prefer to work in the shop and not out by the ditch.

Now, please tell us where this gear is that you're trying to remove.

I think raphael speaks of the over-run clutch

I think youre trying to remove the overrunning clutch,because it will hit your implement when you lift it up.After you remove screw plug oposite of grease fitting which also must be removed,there is a roll pin that must be driven out. Youll have to rotate it while cleaning out the grease so you can see it, then drive it out with a punch use the right size then pull it off the pto shaft. JR
