BEFCO D90-060, Operator'S Manual

Page: 29 / 60

CAUTION: Always work with the driveline as straight as possible. This will
prolong its life and that of its components. It is advised not to work at an angle
greater than 15 degrees.
4.09 - Overrunning Clutch
The shredder is supplied with a PTO driveline that comes equipped with an overrunning
clutch. The PTO yoke end is attached to the tractor’s PTO, while the end with the
overrunning clutch is attached to the shredder. The purpose of the overrunning clutch is
to transmit power in one direction only.
The overrunning clutch is indispensable for use on very fast operating machines,
because when the rotation is suddenly halted, the inertia reverses the direction of
rotation which could cause implement or tractor damage and put the operator or
bystander in danger.
