ƒ
Before coupling, lubricate the two cardan
shaft terminals.
ƒ
Couple the male side on the machine and
the female side on the tractor.
Recommendations:

The cut pieces of the bar, the tube and the
plastic protection of the cardan should have
the same length.
ƒ
Using a lime, remove all the filings from
the tubes. Then, lubricate with a thin layer
of grease.
ƒ
Special attention should be given to the
tube and bar mounting on the square
profile cardans. The Terminals should be
aligned as shown in the figures below.
Misaligned terminals generate vibrations,
wear and cardan breaks.
