When to Inspect Your Tractor PTO for Safety

Team Tractor Ranch

You should inspect your PTO shaft for safety.


Here are some guidelines to follow...

  • Before each use of the tractor or equipment.

  • During operation, maintaining a minimum distance of 6 feet from the PTO shaft when in use.

  • After use.

  • Every time you start your tractor.

  • After every 8 hours of operation.


Additionally, it's recommended to grease the PTO shaft.


Here are some additional guidelines to consider and follow... 

  • After 8 hours of use.

  • Before each use if the equipment is used infrequently.

  • At least annually for equipment used only a couple times a year.


Remember to always turn off the tractor and remove the keys before performing any maintenance or inspection on the PTO shaft.
