Update To Using Pto-Powered Cart To Push A Tractor At High Speeds
I’m concerned about the article in your last issue regarding someone who used a pto-powered cart to push a tractor at high speeds. The pto-powered cart was built on a Roadster axle. When the driver wants to travel faster than the tractor can, he puts the pto in gear and takes the tractor transmission out of gear. I think this practice could be dangerous, especially if you’re using a lighter tractor. A neighbor tried this idea a few years ago on a Ford tractor and accidentally jackknifed the tractor because he had no control over it. Fortunately, he didn’t get hurt. (Roy Hartman, Dickinson, N.
