A tractor includes a PTO shaft and a stub shaft selected from one of a group of different types of stub shafts that are configured to connect the PTO shaft to different types of implements to be driven by the PTO shaft. A circumferentially discontinuous tone wheel is provided on the PTO shaft, and a sensor is associated with the circumferentially discontinuous tone wheel to generate, in response to rotation of the circumferentially discontinuous tone wheel, an electrical signal having a waveform that repeats with a frequency indicative of a speed of rotation of the PTO shaft. Different formations are provided on the different types of stub shafts, and at least one formation of the different formations is detectable by the sensor and serves to modify the waveform in a manner indicative of one of the different types of stub shafts.
