Check Driveline Interference
Refer to Figure 1-10:
WARNING
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
A rotating driveline must not exceed an angle of 25 degrees up
or down, and never engage a driveline while at an angle
exceeding 25 degrees up or down. The driveline can break and
send projectiles.
1. Start tractor and raise implement slightly off the
support blocks used to “Check Driveline
Collapsible Length”
. Drive forward until the
implement is clear of the support blocks.
2. Slowly and carefully lower and raise the implement to
ensure drawbar, tires, and other equipment on the
tractor do not contact the implement’s frame. If there
is an interference:
a. Back implement over the support blocks and
lower it onto the blocks.
b. Shut tractor down before dismounting. Refer to
“Tractor Shutdown Procedure” on page 22
c. Move or remove drawbar if it interferes with the
implement and make any other necessary
corrections.
d. Repeat steps 1-2 to verify the implement does not
interfere with the tractor.
3. Start tractor, raise implement fully up. Back
implement over the support blocks. Do not lower
implement onto the support blocks.
4. Without changing the 3-point lift height, shut tractor
down using “Tractor Shutdown Procedure” on
page 22.
5. Check to make sure driveline does not exceed 25
o
above horizontal.
6. Start tractor, raise implement slightly, and drive
forward enough to clear the support blocks.
7. Lower implement to ground and shut tractor down
using
“Tractor Shutdown Procedure”
on page 22.
