I picked up a "free" 4' rotary - painted yellow (maybe a King Kutter) - looks to be in fairly good shape... however, tonight when I hitched her up the sliding PTO shaft froze up and I was unable to lower the implement to the ground - you could see the PTO shaft yanking on the tractor PTO... (released the catch pin on the PTO connector on the tractor and lowered the implement, pulling the shaft off the PTO)
So - I'll be getting a new shaft for the unit.
Since I have to make a run the the tractor supply joint - I decided I might as well remove the blades and get new ones as these are moderately chewed... I had the 1 1/2" socket - but can not get the nuts to budge - tonight they are sitting with lots of WD-40 on them... anyone have any "sure fire" ways to get a pair of highly neglected nuts off a rotary that sat outside... I sure would like to get new blades added to the shaft replacement... then it would be like new!
