Rick Smith 1 #1 Posted March 1, 2025 1996 520h pto keeps disengaging while snowblowing our driveway. Any assistance would be appreciated. The linkage seems frozen in place so it's not adjustable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
c-series don 11,328 #2 Posted March 1, 2025 I’d start by soaking the trunnion and the threaded rod so you can adjust it. If you have a torch to heat it, even better. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

peter lena 9,752 #4 Posted March 1, 2025 @Rick Smith those trunnions typically bind up without penetrating lubrication , I also washer up any related lever / linkage point , to firm up its response . removed my trunnion,s year's ago , did a die nut rethread , and went to a HEIM JOINT , original thread was 3/8 x 16 , die nut was 3/8 x 24 fine to match HEIM JOINT screw on , always use REPEDITIVE FAILURES , as an opportunity to eliminate the chronic failure , just my thought , have these in place , years now , smooth / silent , pete Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
