Here is a simple mod for your PTO lever -
On my 354 Jinma, I could hardly reach down to engage or dis-engage the PTO lever. Those Chinese dudes must be shorter / thiner and be able to easily reach that lever all the way down there on the floor boards.
Not me - so I modified it by adding a long handle so that it could be reach without bending over. It also gives you more leverage to engage dis-engage.
First remove the stock lever by driving out the spring roll pin, then weld on a 1" DIA x 2" long steel bushing. Drill a hole in the bushing and add a 3/8" steel rod threaded on both ends. Then on the other end add another bushing for a handle.
It works pretty good so I am very happy with it's performance.

How does your PTO engage / dis-engage lever work? is it like the one I had?
