4 - OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Shortening the PTO drive shaft
To shorten the PTO shaft proceed as follows.
1. Fasten the PTO drive shaft half parts to the PTO (on
the tractor) and the PIC (on the implement). The PTO
drive shaft half parts must be at the same horizontal
level, opposite each other at the shortest distance from
the tractor.
2. Make sure that a minimum overlap of
200 mm
(
7.87 in
) exists.
3. Check that the PTO shaft does not bottom out at one
end. Keep the shaft ends parallel to each other and
mark the minimum distance of
30 mm
(
1.18 in
). Only
cut enough PTO shaft off to achieve this minimum free
shaf length. This will maintain the maximum amount
of PTO shaft overlap.
4. Shorten all four tubes equally.
5. Round off the ends of the profile tubes and remove the
burrs carefully.
6. Remove the metal shavings.
NOTICE:
To avoid big friction forces, grease the tube
carefully before you reassemble it. Use
NLGI 2
.
NOTE:
If you shorten the PTO shaft, then you must check
the minimum overlap and the minimum distance again if
you operate the implement with a different tractor.
