Constant Velocity Driveline Installation
Refer to Figure 1-7:
Constant velocity driveline can be installed on RCR2510
and RCRM2510 cutters only. Maximum turning angle is
limited to 80 degrees.
1.
Securely attach slip-clutch end of jackshaft
driveline (#1) to gearbox input shaft (#8). Make
certain the slip-clutch is fully on the gearbox input
shaft. Tighten the conical dog pin on the connection
to 45-50 ft-lb torque.
2.
Insert jackshaft driveline (#1) into pillow block
bearing (#9). Secure bearing support (#2) with
1/2"-13 x 3 1/2" bolts (#3) and 1/2" flange nuts (#4).
NOTE: Do not tighten hardware until assembly or
driveline is complete.
3.
Install main driveline (#5) to jackshaft driveline (#1)
by attaching the (red) slide collar on the jackshaft.
Twist the quick disconnect on the yoke and push it
forward to engage the groove on the jackshaft
splined stub.
4.
Secure chain (#7) to the tongue (#10) to restrict
driveline outer shield from rotating. Secure jackshaft
driveline chain (#6) to the hole in the left side of the
gearbox cover (cover not shown). Securing chains
will restrict driveline outer shields from rotating.
5.
Tighten nuts (#4) to proper torque.
