Refer to Figure 5-3 & Figure 5-4:
6. Secure driveline yoke to drive unit shaft with
M10-8.8 x 70 (2 3/4") bolt (#2) and hex nut (#3).
Tighten nut to the correct torque.
7. Align yoke spline on the outer driveline with tractor
power take-off shaft splines.
8. Push in on push-pin and push yoke partway onto the
drive unit shaft
9. Release push-pin and continue to push driveline
yoke forward until push-pin locks in place.
10. Move driveline yoke back and forth several times to
make sure push-pin has locked in place and cannot
slip off the power take-off shaft
Check Driveline Collapsible Length
Refer to Figure 5-5:
1. Make sure driveline is installed properly before
checking driveline collapsed length. Refer to
"Driveline Installation" instructions on page 25.
2. Measure (
“B”
dimension) back from universal joint
shield to end of outer driveline shield as shown in
Figure 5-5. If measurement is less than 1", then
shorten driveline using instructions provided below.
Shorten Driveline Length
Refer to Figure 5-5:
Be sure to first check driveline collapsed length as
instructed above. If required, shorten driveline as follows:
1. Unhook driveline from tractor power take-off shaft
and pull outer and inner drivelines apart.
2. Reattach outer driveline to tractor power take-off
shaft Pull on inner and outer drivelines to be sure
universal joints are properly secured.
3. Hold inner and outer drivelines parallel to each other:
a. Measure 2" (
“B”
dimension) back from outer
driveline universal joint shield and make a mark at
this location on the inner driveline shield.
b. Measure 2" (
“B”
dimension) back from the inner
driveline universal joint shield and make a mark at
this location on the outer driveline shield.
4. Remove driveline and safety chains from tractor and
drive unit.
5. Measure from end of inner shield to scribed mark
(
“X”
dimension). Cut off inner shield at the mark. Cut
same amount off the inner shaft (
“X1”
dimension).
IMPORTANT:
A driveline that is too long can bottom
out causing structural damage to the tractor and
spreader. Always check driveline collapsed length
during initial setup, when connecting to a different
tractor. More than one driveline may be required to
fit all applications.

6. Measure from end of outer shield to scribed mark
(
“Y”
dimension). Cut off outer shield at the mark. Cut
same amount off the outer shaft (
“Y1”
dimension).
7. Remove all burrs and cuttings.
8. Continue with "Check Driveline Maximum Length".
