Front PTO system
with adjustable, proportional engagement

Zuidberg Front-PTO provides power delivery to the highest technical standards. The PTO features an internal oil immersed multi-plate clutch. Engagement of the clutch is controlled by a proportional and adjustable engagement system. This guarantees a smooth uptake of power to the front mounted implements. When disengaged the PTO is braked but to help connection of machines the PTO output shaft features the ECON connection system. ECON allows the user to manually turn the output shaft through 60 deg when linking up a machine. The PTO has its own integrated oil system requiring no external oil supply from the tractor. Fitting times of the PTOs are reduced and reliability is increased with this system. For almost every type of tractor there is a Zuidberg Front PTO available. Zuidberg provide the broadest range of Front PTO's available. For higher power delivery applications the Zuidberg PTO is supplied with an oil cooler. The oil cooler allows the gearbox to maintain correct operating temperatures even in extreme operating conditions. The PTO output shaft is braked when disengaged eliminating shaft drag in cold conditions.

Due to the customized design of the Front PTO systems each input drive shaft is designed with service in mind. Using different driveshaft combination replacement of items such as V belts is made easier.

Features of the front PTO systems:

Proportional engagement by an electronically activated valve
Internal oil pump
Digital display of the PTO speed
The hydraulically engaged clutch is able to handle a torque of over 700 Nm and transmit 200hp at 1000 rpm output
