Lots of how to write ups on the net, and this video:

I wish I had watched this before I tried my first PTO removal. That style of hex wrench is the way to go, hammering it in is mandatory. The back and forth motion (driving the set screw back in when you hit a stop) goes against your nature to keep that thing backing out, but it will save you. Two set screws per hole, TAKE YOUR TIME.

You do not want to be in the position of drilling these out. Hardened steel and rust = several broken drill bits and a real pain. Still doable, but takes some fun out of the job.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
