I have had great success bathung the PTO mechanism in "Tri-Flo" bicycle chain
lubricant. It is a Teflon oil that sticks very easily to the slow moving parts
of the PTO. The last time I used it was more than one year ago and the PTO is
still flawless. Nothing in the PTO to hurt that I can find. I have squirted it
in the PTO until it has washed out all the old grease, and let it drain onto
newspaper over nite before reassembling. By then it is well lubed. Lots easier
than a rebiuld, unless you are a purist.
Has anyone who has tried this method found any fault i.e. components value
changing, I haven't.
