Does anyone know how MMM works on a tractor with Hydro? I have a MMM on a B1550 with gear drive and when I push in the clutch, the mower also stops. When you stop with a hydro transmission does the MMM (mid PTO) also stop or does it keep on turning? /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

Yes, the mower on a hydro will continue to run when you let up on the hydro peddle/stop.
Also keep in mind that gear drive tractors with live or independant PTO the mower will continue to run when the clutch is pushed in..

On my <font color="orange"> Kubota </font>B2910, when you take your foot off the HST pedal the mower continues to run. But if the clutch is pushed in the MMM will stop turning. When in a panic situation I push the clutch in. Must be a habit I got from using a gear trans tractor for many years.
