PTO is short for Power takeoff. It is to control a shaft comming out of a vehicle to power things like a snow blower attached to the front, or to control things on the back of a tractor... I never heard of a PTO on a lawn mower... It must be a pretty big lawn Mower. PTO on a riding mower will be an electric engaged clutch used to power a belt drive or other attachments. Oh yes, your right.. perhaps it may be the pull handle to engage it also.
The PTO (Power Take-Off) switch on a Murray riding mower is typically located near the operator's seat, often on the dashboard or control panel. It is usually a lever or a button that activates the mower's blades. In some models, it may also be integrated into the ignition switch. Always refer to the specific owner's manual for precise location details for your model.

Your mower has an electric PTO clutch that is worn out. It clutch stops working when it gets hot. Replace the PTO clutch and you should be fine. Expect to pay about $150 for the part.
The electric PTO Clutch is Electromagnetic. There is a stator which creates a magnetic field when voltage is applied and this causes the free spun pulley to lock into place with the crankshaft of the engine. When voltage is release, spring pressure forces the pulley away from the stator. This is over simplified but that is about it.
