SHORTENING THE PTO SHAFT
1. Connect the device to the tractor’s 3-point
hitch.
2. Lift the machine with the hitch so that the
distance between the splined shafts is at its
shortest.
3. First cut the thicker shaft shield to the
correct length. Remember to leave a 40 mm
clearance. Next, cut a similar length from the
profile tube. Shorten the other half of the
PTO shaft in a similar manner. File off
the burr.
4. Interconnect the tubes and check
that the shaft is sufficiently shortened
by carefully lifting up and down with the hoist.
Ensure that the shaft has a 40 mm
movement clearance. Also move
the machine sideways to check that the shaft
moves freely.
