Refer to Figure 1-3:
DANGER
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Always secure equipment with solid, non-concrete supports
before working under it. Never go under equipment supported
by concrete blocks or hydraulics. Concrete can break,
hydraulic lines can burst, and/or hydraulic controls can be
actuated even when power to the hydraulics is off.
1. With driveline attached only to the implement,
remove outer driveline (tractor end) from inner
driveline to separate the two profiles.
2. Park tractor and implement on a level surface.
3. Raise implement until the gearbox input shaft is level
and in-line with the tractor power take-off shaft.
4. Securely block implement at this height to keep unit
from lowering.
5. With implement resting on the support blocks,
shutdown the tractor. Refer to “Tractor Shutdown
Procedure”
on page 11.
6. Attach outer driveline to the tractor’s power take-off
shaft. Refer to
“Connect Driveline to Tractor”
on
page 14 if needed.
7. Hold inner and outer drivelines parallel to each other
as shown in Figure 1-3. Measure dimension “A”.
•
If “A” is less than 1", continue with step 8.
•
If “A” is greater than or equal to 1", skip to
“Check
Driveline Maximum Length”
on page 16.

IMPORTANT: A driveline that is too long can bottom
out causing structural damage to the tractor and
implement. Always check driveline minimum length
during initial setup, and when connecting to a
different tractor. More than one driveline may be
required to fit all applications.
Shorten Driveline Length
Figure 1-4
Refer to Figure 1-4:
8. Shorten driveline as follows:
a. Measure 1" (
“B1”
dimension) back from outer
driveline shield and make a mark at this location
on the inner driveline shield.
b. Measure 1" ( “B2” dimension) back from the inner
driveline shield and make a mark at this location
on the outer driveline shield.
9. Remove outer driveline from the tractor’s power
take-off shaft and inner driveline from the
implement’s gearbox shaft.
10. Cut off non-yoke end of inner driveline as follows:
a. Measure from end of inner shield to scribed mark
( “X” dimension) and record.
b. Cut off inner shield at the mark. Cut same amount
off the inner shaft ( “X1” dimension).
11. Cut off non-yoke end of outer driveline as follows:
a. Measure from end of outer shield to scribed mark
(
“Y”
dimension) and record.
b. Cut off outer shield at the mark. Cut same amount
off the outer shaft (
“Y1”
dimension).
12. Remove all burrs and cuttings.
13. Continue with
“Check Driveline Maximum Length”
on page 16.
