B2650 question?

bluefin650 · Apr 24, 2018

I have a 2650 with 10hrs on it. When I got the tractor, I was using a front mount snowblower on it. When I would scroll through the display to get to the mid pto screen, it would display pto speed at 540-560rpm. Now when I am using the mid pto ONLY, the rear pto screen displays the pto speed at 540-560rpm and the display screen for the mid pto displays engine rpm along with the normal display screen that displays engine rpm. I had my dealer pick up the tractor to check it out. The tractor was dropped back off today so I checked the display. No change. I called the dealer and I was told that this was the normal operation of the display. I am not buying the explanation. The manual says Mid PTO speed for the display.

So, What do you guys say in your display when you are running the mid pto and on the mid pto display screen?

I've never checked mine. When mowing I just crank it up to at least 2000 RPM, and mow. I never had a PTO speed indicator on my old B2910, and I can't think of a situation where I would actually use it.

Just enjoy the tractor, and don't worry about the small stuff.

The mid PTO runs much faster than 540-560, so I'm guessing the display has only ever read the rear PTO based on your description. Setting the rear to 540 RPMs is very likely to also set the desired Mid PTO rpm.
