No understands this story like me and my family

[@ianbetts4435]

PTO covers don't last and are very expensive, it's time to do away with Power Take Off shafts. One solution would be for every machine to come with its own hydraulic motor powered from the tractor vior pipes, that would be safer, but it comes down to money over safty.

[@drone_tours]

My brother has a fear of the pto shaft breaking and coming through the back window of the tractor

[@PaddyGun]

i use all the safety I can and never go near a spinning shaft but I'm still glad the industry appears to be moving towards hydraulic driven pumps

[@georgebarnessr5472]

My Uncle's hired hand LeRoy Sweatt had a terrible accident when his overalls got caught in the pto shaft. Banged up pretty good with broken ribs a broken arm and leg. He could never return to farming but he was alive. Be safe out there.🇺🇸🐄🚒🚑
