[edit] Note to self

Useful info and cite here: http://www.tractordata.com/articles/technical/pto.html Gary van der Merwe (Talk) 12:31, 18 April 2007 (UTC) In addition - PTO standards are defined in ISO 500. Gary van der Merwe (Talk) 13:17, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] PTO uses aside from tractors

I know that tractors are the most common usage of PTO, but what about mentioning the uses back in the days of Willys? I know I found a Jeep Gladiator with a PTO, I know the Unimog utilizes it as well, and I believe the "fire jeep", the American Marsh Pump Jeep CJ-2 (one of the first civilian jeeps, made in 1945) used some sort of PTO to power the pump.

[edit] Uses in Agriculture

I think that uses of a PTO in agriculture should be included (especially since this article is part of the agriculture project...) A few uses:
Blower for filling a silo (pushes corn/hay/whatever up a tube, in a nutshell)
Manure pit drainage
Operating field equipment for harvesting (corn, grass, whatever)
Running generators

[edit] Types

Should a section about the different types of pto be added? (The types Im refering to are the types on a tractor. The types are: Transmission, Live, and Independent.)
