Rotating Auxiliary Driveshafts
WARNING:

Rotating auxiliary driveshafts are dangerous. You can snag clothes, skin, hair, hands, etc. This can cause serious
injury or death.

Do not go under the vehicle when the engine is running.

Do not work on or near an exposed shaft when the engine is running.

Shut off the engine before working on the Power Take-Off or driven equipment.

Exposed rotating driveshafts must be guarded.
Guarding Auxiliary Driveshafts
WARNING:
We strongly recommend that a Power Take-Off and a directly mounted pump be used to
eliminate the auxiliary driveshaft whenever possible. If an auxiliary driveshaft is used and remains exposed after installation,
it is the responsibility of the vehicle designer and P.T.O. installer to install a guard.
Using Set Screws
WARNING:
Auxiliary driveshafts may be installed with either recessed or protruding set screws. If you
choose a square head set screw, you should be aware that it will protrude above the hub of the yoke and may be a point
where clothes, skin, hair, hands, etc. could be snagged. A socket head set screw, which may not protrude above the hub of
the yoke, does not permit the same amount of torquing as does a square head set screw. Also, a square head set screw, if
used with a lock wire, will prevent loosening of the screw caused by vibration. Regardless of the choice made with respect
to a set screw, an exposed rotating auxiliary driveshaft must be guarded.
Important: Safety Information and Owner’s Manual
Chelsea Power Take-Offs are packaged with safety information decals, instructions, and owner’s manual. These items are
located in the envelope with the P.T.O. mounting gaskets. Also, safety information and installation instructions are packaged
with some individual parts and kits.
Be sure to read the owner’s manual before installing or operating the
P.T.O.
Always install the safety information decals according to the instructions provided. Place the owner’s manual in the
vehicle glove compartment.
WARNING: Operating the P.T.O. with the Vehicle in Motion
Some Power Take-Offs may be operated when the vehicle is in motion. To do so, the P.T.O. must have been properly
selected to operate at highway speeds and correctly matched to the vehicle transmission and the requirements of the driven
equipment.
If in doubt about the P.T.O. specifications and capabilities, avoid operating the P.T.O. when the vehicle is in motion.
Improper applications and/or operation can cause serious personal injury or premature failure of the vehicle, the driven
equipment, and/or the P.T.O.
Always remember to disengage the P.T.O. when the driven equipment is not in operation.
