What is a PTO on tractor?

A power take-off (PTO) is a device that allows a tractor or other mechanical device to transfer power to another implement. In the case of a tractor, the PTO is typically located at the rear of the tractor and consists of a rotating shaft that can be attached to various implements, such as ploughs, planters, mowers, etc. Once attached, the tractor PTO is used to drive the equipment and provide the necessary power. By utilizing a PTO, tractors become versatile machines that can handle a wide range of tasks while maximizing their power capabilities.
