Thanks for the brochure. I don't think that ever went into production from what I can find. The other thing that is strange is that output shaft (in that brochure) is a male but all Cat 0 rear PTO has a female output shaft on the tractor side. The other thing that is strange is the location of the output. It looks too low and too far to the left side for any standard equipment to be used. Did they plan on making their own attachments to fit this PTO?

Here's another cat 0 rear pto mower that I have. This is a Haban 440 HD. The cutter bar lowers and raises from the front ports( I need to split those and put a set in the back) and the height is cotrolled by the rear lift. These are super hard to find too. This and my L42 will probably never be used by me. I'm more of a collector on these items than a user + I have a 48" Bush Hog Cat 1 I use behind my Kubota. If I break anything on that I know parts are available.

It actually went Into Production(I confirmed that with MTD Back In 2009) and a Member On MTF had One In Virginia with a Tiller On it, I was so surprised I Had thought it was for Canada and Europe Only. It just wasn't Very Popular In the US, but it was available to Be Ordered. The Tiller for the Super would Get a New Drive shaft end to accommodate the Male 2000RPM The Rear PTO was actually run off the front PTO similar to the Kubota and Gílson set-Ups, a shaft with a sheave went all the way down the left-hand side of the Tractor You used a Belt off the front PTO to a sheave that was on the rear PTO drive shaft Mostly when MTD brought out the 3000 series, In US they Pushed the 8HP 3point Mounted Tillers Until they Came out with the 42-inch Hydraulic tiller
You actually Can't find the Rear PTO Kit In the Online Parts Diagrams. It Is Just like the 38-inch tiller adapter Kits, the Numbers they used In some Catalogs will not actually show Up In the online Parts Catalog

It's to Bad after Agri-Fab Purchased the assets of Haban That they didn't continue to Make the Haban attachments. Haban Made Many of the PTO driven Tillers, and PTO driven Mowing equipment for many Manufacturers Plus snow Blowers and Front Blades . The tiller for The Ariens High Tech(HT series) was Manufactured By Haban

Neato. Yeah, I have a superior 5' King Kutter for my IH 284, but it would be cool to have the L42 for little cleanup jobs.

I take it there's no way to put a "slower" 540rpm PTO on the back end of these 2000rpm tractors?

Or are there reduction gearboxes you can add as an adapter to the equipment to make it work?

A guy could probably make one that hangs off the back, but that will push the implement ever further away/reduce lift and control.

The 2000 rpm connector on the tractor is a female while the implement connector is male and the 2000 rpm turns opposite the 540. The 540 rpm tractor connector is a male and the implement is a female connector. I don't know about the Cub but the John Deere 2000 pto is a gearbox that mounts under the fuel tank just behind the transaxle.

The Cub Cadet rear pto is belt driven from the output shaft of the hydro. I'm not too impressed with the design but I guess it works okay.
