Abstract: A transmission particularly adapted for use on a Bidirectional.TM. tractor, is disclosed wherein the engine of the tractor drives an input shaft having first and second spline-mounted drive gears. An idler gear is connected to a power take-off output shaft and is driven by the second drive gear. The idler gear drives a first driven gear connected to a clutch mounted on an output shaft. The first drive gear drives a second driven gear connected to the clutch. The first and second driven gears rotate in opposite directions of rotation. The clutch is keyed to the transmission output shaft and is operable to select the direction of rotation by engagement of either the first or second driven gears.

Abstract: A two speed power take-off with a reversible adaptor flange and a connected drive shaft for connection to either of two drive flanges rotating at different speeds. The adaptor flange has an inner and outer transition area with a plurality of bolt holes drilled in each area. The axes of the bolt holes in each area are at different angles such that the holes in one transition area match with receiving holes in one drive flange and, when the adaptor flange is reversed, the holes in the other transition area match with the receiving holes in the other drive flange.
