P.T.O. DRIVE SHAFT
Make sure the EL 50 N is resting on the ground and is maintained in a stable position with the parking stand or
with the front wheels. Clean and lubricate the gearbox input shaft and slide the mating PTO shaft yoke in place.
After mounting the Power Tiller, stabilize the tractor 3-point linkage with whatever means are recommended (tie
bars, chains etc.).
Be sure the tractor P.T.O. shaft drive is disengaged and stop engine.
Couple the PTO shaft to the tractor P.T.O. stub.
Attachment is correct when machine is horizontal in work position.
With the machine resting on the ground, adjust the top link (P) length to a position where the tractor PTO stub
and the tiller input shaft are parallel.
In working position :
- The 2 angles (K) formed by the centre lines of the yoke and the sliding tubes must be equal and not exceed
a combined angle of 30° when working.
- The sliding tube overlap (L) must be at least 22 cm (8.5") (fig. 8).
