A very small hex wrench. Don't know exactly what size but it is small.
There are various opinions about un-sticking stuck PTO shafts. In mine,
the alcohol MAY work but I would not bank on it working very long. I have
tried a number of different ways of freeing PTO shafts over the years and in
my experience, the best results have been to do the Ten Tec
recommended rebuild.
