Circuit breaker keeps tripping

Dixon ZTR 5023 (Serial # HP-004151) Circuit breaker only trips when you engage the pto switch and after about 30 seconds the machine quits, starts right back up, and again after about 30 seconds the engine quits. If the pto is not engaged, it does not trip the circuit breaker. Maybe a bad pto unit drawing too many amps, or maybe the circuit breaker itself? What's your thoughts? I appreciate your help, thank you!

You need to read the pto clutch amps. Do you have a ammeter?
or install a 10 amp fuse or ckt breaker in the electric clutch ckt.
You can get automotive type ckt breakers from Amazon in a kit of several sizes very reasonable.
