How does the rear PTO work when you aren't on the seat to operate a rear PTO wood chipper? I assume most tractors are like mine in which the PTO disengages once you leave the seat. Do you have to disable this safety device to run a chipper? Sure can't feed a chipper from the seat.

I bought my tractor used a couple of years ago, and the owner couldn't find the operator's manual that came with it. I can buy the manual from New Holland, but it's about $35. Anybody know where I might be able to download a free copy? I'm surprised New Holland doesn't allow free download of...
