CAUTION
Material damages due to excessively long drive shaft
When the machine is lifted up, the universal drive shaft halves can
come into contact inside each other. This can cause damage to the
drive shaft, the transmission or the machine.
 Check the clearance between the machine and the tractor.
 Make sure there is enough space (at least 20 to 30mm)
between the outer pipe of the drive shaft and the protective
cone on the spreader side.
NOTICE
To check and adjust the universal drive shaft, observe the installation instruc-
tions and the shortening instructions in the
operating manual of the universal
drive shaft manufacturer . The operating manual is attached to the universal
drive shaft upon delivery.
NOTICE
Have the universal drive shaft shortened only by your dealer or specialist work-
shop.
