PTO INSTAllATION TO eNgINe OR DRIVINg MeMBeR
1. Clean the PTO housing flange, flywheel housing flange, and pilot bearing bore of any debris.
2. Make sure the housing flange and flywheel housing flange are free of surface imperfections
such as nicks, burrs, and sharp edges. Remove them using fine emery cloth or crocus cloth.
3. Install a minimum of three guide studs in the flywheel housing, located approximately 120°
apart. Using a suitable hoist, position the PTO on the guide studs and slide it against the
flywheel housing, carefully aligning the pilot bearing with the pilot bearing bore in the flywheel
and the teeth of the friction plates (6) with the drive ring (5).
Do not force the PTO unit onto the engine. If any resistance is noted, repeat the clutch plate
centering procedure either in the clutch assembly or final assembly information of the Assembly
section to align and center the friction plates so they mesh properly with the teeth of the drive
ring.
4. Secure the PTO housing to the flywheel housing with (12 or 16) hexhead capscrews. Torque
the capscrew to the proper specifications given in Torque Values for Fasteners in the Description
and Specifications section of this manual.
Note: PTO housing to flywheel housing attachment screws must be grade 5 or better.
5. Rap the output end of the main shaft with a soft hammer to remove any preload on the main
bearings and/or pilot bearing.
This step must not be omitted. Bearing failure may result.
