Until now, thanks.

Possibly heavy grease used on the front ball bearing? I've had a few
where someone greased this with automotive wheel bearing grease! Also, be
sure the gearbox bearing adjustment screw (located at the back end of the
PTO shaft) hasn't been overtightened.
The front surface of the clip ring should be flush with the front edge of
the larger diameter of the brass drive shaft. Yours is working, but the
rubber clutch is only bearing on the face of this larger diameter of the
shaft and would begin to slip soon since the friction area is only a small
fraction of the surface of the clip ring. By the way, this ring WILL
break if you expand it too far.

Hello Garey
Thanks for your response.
I know this article, but it does not indicate, or give answer, why these
two parts are placed on the outer side of the plastic dial.
The two parts are laying on the table, but it seems the gear works
anyway.
There must be a purpose for those two parts, but I can't see it.
The main reason why I am working on this is that the movement of the PTO
gear feels very sluggish,
and I want to do it more smooth.
It is the PTO on my R-4C which is very well-kept, but as mentioned the
PTO gear feels very sluggish compared to my T-4XC PTO.
Therefore I want to know how this gear system works.
I do not yet have the courage to take it a part, before i know how it
works.
Do you have some comments to this?
/ Bent

Hello All
Is someone able to explain the meaning of the clip ring, and the 28mm.
outer Alu. bushing right beneath the clip ring to me?
Are these two parts necessary?
Is someone able to explain the principle of the gear by words or by
help of a sketch?
I am preparing a cleaning and maintenance of the gear.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Bent
