4.07 - Reverse Gearbox Direction
The D90 flail shredder in its standard configuration is to be used with a tractor that has a
shaft that turns clockwise.
It is possible to reverse the direction of rotation of the output shaft on the gearbox and
therefore to use the flail shredder with a tractor that has a shaft with a counter clockwise
rotation.
To reverse the direction it is necessary to move the ring gear to the other side of the
PTO shaft and to replace the overrunning clutch with a left-turning clutch. This operation
entails opening the drive transmission. We recommend this be done only at an
Authorized Company Dealership.
Note: The flail shredder comes with a PTO driveline equipped with a right-turning
overrunning clutch (clockwise). Always check the direction of rotation on the tractor’s
PTO to be sure it is the same as the overrunning clutch. If the tractor comes with a
left-turning PTO (counter clockwise) the overrunning clutch must be changed to
left-turning as well.
4.08 - Driveline
DANGER: Only use the original driveline supplied with this shredder and always
with the safety shielding.
Carefully read and file away the driveline operator’s manual supplied by the
manufacturer. The following does not substitute the information found in the
driveline manual.
