The adjustment of a mechanical PTO is more feel than actual measurement. I'm assuming you have an attachment on it for resistance- like a mower or snow thrower- or the PTO will never disengage. You gotta keep checking the adjustment with the turnbuckle on the side. Put the lever in the "off (disengaged)" position and if the attachment/PTO is still turning, put the lever back to the "on (engaged)" position, shorten the distance on the rod with the turnbuckle by 1/4 a turn, then shut it off again. Keep doing this until the PTO finally disengages and you've got it right, the tighten the nut on the front side of the turnbuckle.
