Tractor Requirements
Tractor requirements can differ from PTO kit to PTO kit.
The following information is for the PTO pump
assembly kit (411-919A) designed specifically for the
PL5500 planter.
The PTO pump assembly kit requires a tractor with:
•
a rear
-
facing ASABE or ASAE Type 1 PTO stub
shaft with master shield,
shaft: 1
3
/
8
inch (35 mm) 6 spline,
clockwise rotation (as viewed from tractor rear,
facing forward),
•
a live or independent PTO drive system, that can
be operated with the tractor stationary,
•
a fixed or available shaft speed of 540 rpm, and an available PTO power output of 5 hp (3.7 kW),
•
a drawbar that engages the torque arm of the PTO pump assembly, and
•
a chain anchor point, a stable, non
-
moving component of the tractor, within reach of the pump’s torque arm chain.
540 rpm PTO Clearance
If the tractor PTO is not known to conform to Type 1
specifications, check the following pump
-
specific
clearance dimensions:
a. Shaft to master shield top:
3.5 inches (8.9 cm) minimum
or hinged lid
b. Shaft to master shield sides:
5.0 inches (12.7 cm) minimum
c. Shaft to drawbar top:
9 inches (22.8 cm) minimum
15 inches (38.1 cm) maximum
It may be necessary to invert an offset drawbar, or
relocate or remove any clevis installed on the
drawbar.
d. Shaft to ground:
16 inches (40.6 cm) minimum
Entanglement and Flailing Equipment Hazards:
Do not use a driveline, shaft extension, adaptor, or external
gearbox with the PTO pump. Use only a native 540 rpm
6
-
spline stub shaft. Extra fittings create entanglement
hazards. Fittings also destabilize the shaft, and may make it
impossible to adequately secure the pump against torque and
shaft slip.
