Massey Ferguson 3050, 3060, 3080 - Power take-off clutch
The power-takeoff clutch, fitted at the front of the rear axle housing, is driven by a shaft traversing the primary shaft of the gearbox, the speed shift, the reverse shuttle and the layshaft. This shaft is connected via splines to a sleeve fixed on the engine flywheel. The clutch assembly, Valeo version, is composed of the following principal components: 1) Housing (9) supported by two ball bearings (2) and (7) separated by a sleeve (4) centered in a hole in the center housing.
The housing contains a shaft supported by the ball bearing (23) in the
hub (24). 2) Piston (11) sliding inside the housing. 3) Set of inner
plates (16) and outer plates (15). 4) Driving hub (24). 5) Cover (20).
The housing has exterior helical teeth which drive the gear of the
hydraulic pump. The roller bearings and the plates are lubricated. A new
clutch made by MF operating in an identical manner is now fitted on
3050, 3060, 3080, 3065, 3070, 3095, 3120 and 3125 tractors. The clutch
has 3, 4 or 5 plates, depending on the version.
Version without PTO
On MF 3050, 3060, 3080, 3065, 3070, 3095, 3120, 3125 tractors without
PTO, an assembly comprising a driving gear and sleeve replaces the PTO
clutch. The sleeve is smeared with Loctite 648 and is inserted in the
gear by a press. On the right cover, the solenoid valves of the PTO and
of the PTO brake are replaced with plugs. The PTO brake feeder tube is
absent.
The PTO speed sensor is replaced with a plug. The top link support has 2
plugs mounted on the lubrication and brake ducts of the PTO. A cover
plate (fitted using Loctite 510 or equivalent) replaces the rear cover
assembly. The lubrication tube of the gear driving the PTO is absent. A
right-angled connector replaces the T-connector.

Take-off Clutch Operation
PTO engagement
The clutch is fed by the 17 bar hydraulic circuit through the PTO
solenoid valve situated on the right side cover. The oil enters the
support housing (9) through channels a, b and c. It pushes the piston
(11) which presses the outer plates (15) against the inner plates (16).
The outer plates (15) have lugs which are driven by the clutch housing
(17) and the inner plates (16) drive the hub (24), which is splined to
the intermediate shaft which is in turn splined to the PTO compound
gear. At the same time the pressure which was acting on the PTO brake
piston is cut off, enabling the 540 and 1000 rpm gears to turn freely.
When the clutch is engaged, the plates
PTO braking
When the supply is cut off the spring pushes the piston against the
housing (9). At the same time, the solenoid valve tor the PTO brake
directs the oil to the PTO brake situated in the top link support. The
pressure acts on a piston winch supports the cup on the rear taper
roller bearing, progressively stopping the driving gear.

PTO Clutch Removal and Refitting
Removal
Remove the left side cover. Remove the top link support, the compound
gear and the intermediate shaft. Remove the retaining screw of the
clutch. Remove the clutch and the spring.
Refitting
Clean and check the parts. Replace those which are defective. Check that
the O-rings have not deteriorated. Place the spring in the hollow clutch
shaft and refit the clutch, pushing it as far as possible with a lever
so as to compress the spring in order to fit the screw. Clean the screw
and smear it with Loctite 221 and tighten it with a ring spanner. Refit
the intermediate shaft, the compound gear and the top link support.
Replace the left cover. Check the operation of the PTO clutch, the PTO
brake and of the lift.
