Sizing PTO Drive-line
The PTO Drive-line as supplied with the machine will need to be checked for the proper length
before being put into service.
To accommodate the various hitch and tractor configurations the supplied shaft may be too long, or
in some cases too short. To determine shaft length, find the collapsed length, raise or lower the equip -
ment until the PTO out of the tractor is horizontal with the input shaft on the machine. Measure lock-pin
groove to lock-pin groove or bolt hole on the equipment. If this is on trailed equipment then turn tractor
as sharp as possible.
Measure collapsed PTO shaft from lock-pin to lock-pin or bolt hole and compare it with the measure-
ment on the tractor. The difference of these measurements needs to be cut from Both Halves of the
PTO shaft plus 1/2”.
Working Length overlap is 1/2 of above collapsed length
Minimum Overlap in Transport Position 1/3 of collapsed length
Following these guidelines will reduce the chances of damage to the equipment.
• Use a sharp hacksaw to cut the PTO tube
•
Use a fine file to remove any sharp edges and burrs from sawing
• Clean off all dirt and filings from tube, carefully test for smooth fit.
• Apply a light coat of grease to the outside of the small tube
• Reinstall the shields
• Install on equipment and recheck.
These procedures need to be followed before first putting into operation and when attaching to
a different tractor
