???

I only see two gears, the 11-tooth pinion of the near CIM and the 60-tooth gear it engages. The two structures behind the front plate do not look like gears; the spacing between "teeth" is uneven, and the tooth profile doesn't make sense for gears.

I also don't see a second pancake piston; are you assuming it's below the CIMs coaxial with the 60-tooth gear?

What 2 PTO gears?
