POWER TAKE‐OFF (P.T.O.)
Drive shaft delivers power directly from power take-off
(P.T.O.) to attachment – front, rear and center-mounted.
Switching powered attachments requires only a short time.
Slide universal joint over end of splined power take-off
shaft liberally greasing shaft, align holes in joint and shaft,
and secure with special cotter pin.
Do not neglect to install cotter into universal
joint.
Slide attachment drive and P.T..O. drive shaft universal joint
together; install pins into hitch points. The P.T.O (power
take-off) drive shaft is located under the front of the
tractor frame and is connected to the engine by three drive
belts. This assembly has a drive shaft which is splined at
both ends so that front, center and rear power attachments
can be coupled directly to it. Universal joints on the
attachments are equipped with needle-bearings allowing
you to raise or lower attachments (with hydraulic lift lever)
while the tractor is under full power.
Your Husky Tractor has the fastest attachment switch
system in the industry. No belts to install ... no special
tools needed.
ALWAYS REMOVE UNIVERSAL JOINT FROM
POWER TAKE-OFF SHAFT WHEN
ATTACHMENTS ARE REMOVED FROM
TRACTOR. IF THE JOINT IS NOT REMOVED
AND THE POWER TAKE-OFF IS ENGAGED,
DAMAGE WILL RESULT FROM WHIPPING
ACTION OF THE FREE JOINT, AND PERSONAL
INJURY COULD OCCUR.
