In thick, but not tall, grass PTO shaft stops turning.

The last PTO I had anything to do with (Not JD) was adjusted
by tightening up a ring of bolts on the springs of a multiplate
clutch. Similar to some motorcycles.
Failed. The plates were oil contaminated & had to be replaced.
Tried cleaning with petrol but that didn't work.
