[if equipped]
To avoid personal injury or death:
A
Be sure to observe the PTO shaft speed
prescribed for the individual implements. It is
extremely dangerous to run an implement at
high speed that is meant to be operated at low
speed. Use only when this higher rpm is
specifically recommended by the implement
manufacturer.
By interchanging the PTO shafts, 2 different PTO shaft
speeds can be obtained.
C
PTO shaft interchanging procedure
1. The 6-spline 540 rpm PTO shaft is standard
equipment.
2. Place an oil pan under the PTO shaft to catch oil
spillage. Remove the snap ring, and then the PTO
shaft.
3. Install the 21-spline PTO shaft (1000 rpm). To ensure
that it is tight, push it in by turning.
4. Reinsert the snap ring.
5. Set the distance from drawbar pin hole to the rear end
of PTO shaft according to the following instructions.
