Adjusting the length of the PTO shaft to the tractor
WARNING
Danger due to
•
damaged and/or destroyed, flying parts for the
operator/third persons may occur if the universal joint shaft
is upended or pulls apart while the implement coupled to
the tractor is being raised/lowered because the length of the
universal joint shaft has not been adjusted properly.
•
being caught and drawn in if the universal joint shaft is
installed incorrectly or if unauthorised structural changes
are made.
Have the length of the universal joint shaft checked by a specialist
workshop in all implement situations and, if necessary, adjusted
before coupling the universal joint shaft to your tractor for the first
time.
When adjusting the universal joint shaft, it is mandatory to observe
the operating manual supplied by the universal joint shaft
manufacturer.
This adjustment of the PTO shaft applies only for the current tractor
type. You may have to readjust the universal joint shaft if you couple
the implement to different tractor.
WARNING
Danger of being caught and drawn in if the PTO shaft is installed
incorrectly or if unauthorised structural changes are made.
Only a specialist workshop may make structural changes to the
universal joint shaft. In doing so, the operating manual from the
universal joint shaft manufacturer must be observed.
Adjusting the length of the universal joint shaft is permitted with
consideration of the minimum profile overlap.
Structural changes to the universal joint shaft that are not described
in the operating manual from the universal joint shaft manufacturer
are not permitted.
WARNING
Danger of crushing between the rear of the tractor and the
implement when raising and lowering the implement to
determine the shortest and longest operating position of the
universal joint shaft.
Actuate the operating controls for the tractor's three-point hydraulic
system
•
only from the intended workplace.
•
if you are outside of the danger area between the tractor and the
implement.
