2110A PT Peanut Combine Operation
Attaching and Checking Driveline
4. Be certain that the driveline length does
not exceed 72 inches when fully
extended (sketch).
5. Start the tractor engine and raise the
pickup header to its highest position.
6. After proper safety measures are taken
(see Chapter 1, Safety ), slowly turn the
tractor. Observe when the telescoping
driveline is close to its closed position or
when the tractor tire is close to the
combine tongue. This is the minimum
turning radius in that direction.
7. Repeat in the opposite direction.
NOTE! If the driveline length is more
than 72 inches, check the drawbar setting
and move the drawbar out.
NOTE! In most cases, the tractor will turn
until the tire is very close to the combine
tongue, without the telescoping shaft
bottoming out. If this is not possible with
your tractor, do NOT exceed the
observed limits or severe damage to the
combine and tractor will occur, whether
the PTO is engaged or disengaged.
CAUTION
Never exceed the observed limits of
turning or severe damage to the
combine and/or tractor will occur,
whether the PTO is engaged or
disengaged.
CAUTION
Do NOT allow the tractor tire to touch
the tongue, or the universal driveline to
reach its closed (bottomed out) position
during operation. Do NOT allow the
constant velocity joint to exceed 80
degrees. Severe damage to the
driveline, tractor, or combine will occur.
