4. Remove front jam nut securing switch to mounting
bracket and remove switch.
5. Install new PTO switch to mounting bracket. Adjust
switch so it is depressed 1/2 in. (13 mm) when PTO
lever is moved to OFF position. Tighten jam nuts to
75 in.-lb. Install boot to switch.
Important Switch threads will be damaged if jam nuts
are over tightened.
6. Connect a continuity tester or ohm meter to switch
connector. With PTO lever in the ON position the
switch circuit should not have any continuity. If there
is continuity, recheck switch installation. If there is no
continuity, proceed to next step.
7. Move PTO lever to the OFF position. When PTO lever
is in its normal, released position, the PTO switch
should have continuity. If there is no continuity,
recheck switch installation. If there is no continuity,
proceed to next step.
8. Push switch connectors together.
9. Connect battery cable and install instrument cover.
