Manitoba | I think the pto on the 1086 is a weak point on those tractors. I have been told the 1086 is the same as the 966 as far as the components in the pto and we have had issues with the 966 we use on a mixer wagon. That being said I think we have solved the issue by running the mixer wagon at a higher rpm than we were. Since we switched that we have not had issues but had changed the pto clutch discs twice before doing that. I have not changed the pto clutch discs myself but the guy we get to do it says it is pretty easy to do. (looked like it was no problem but I did not help him) The whole thing is accessible by removing the housing at the back of the tractor so it is not a big deal.
Before doing that check the oil level. (transmission) In our 966 it takes a lot of oil to move the level when it is just below the add so what might not seem like a big deal (just a little low) may be quite a bit low. I have had it once where the tractor did what you are saying yours did and by topping up the oil it was fine. I also cleaned the transmission filter (metal screen, on the 966 on the right side of the transmission. It was quite plugged up (you could hear it kind of whining when you used the hydraulics) probably bits of clutch plate from the previously mentioned problem.
The clutch kit was $ 77.00 last time I picked one up so parts not too bad for cost. Maybe someone else could respond regarding the actual procedure on changeing the clutch.
