Recommendations:

Inspect Rear PTO Speed Sensor:

• Check the rear PTO speed sensor for any signs of malfunction.
• Ensure the sensor is securely mounted and connected properly.

Verify Implement Operation:

• Ensure that the implement connected to the rear PTO is operating correctly and not causing the PTO to run at excessive speeds.
• Adjust the implement settings if necessary.

Check PTO Clutch:

• Inspect the rear PTO clutch for signs of excessive slip or wear.
• Adjust or replace the clutch if necessary.

Update Control Software:

• Ensure that the control software is updated to the latest version.
• Apply any available patches or updates that address speed regulation issues.

Consult Technical Support:

• If the problem persists, consult with technical support or the equipment manufacturer for further assistance.
• Provide detailed error logs and speed measurements to aid in troubleshooting.

Monitor PTO System Performance:

• After addressing the issue, monitor the rear PTO system to ensure it operates correctly and within the specified speed range.
• Keep detailed records of any further speed-related errors.

Note:

High speed in the rear PTO can cause significant wear and damage to both the PTO system and the connected implement. Regular maintenance and proper use of the PTO and implement can prevent such issues.
