CHOOSING POWER SHAFT
To ensure compatibility with a diverse group of 3-point mounting systems, the
power transmission shaft may be too long or too short. It is particularly important
that the transmission through the telescopic shaft is carried out freely, but without
tapping to limit the operating range.
Too long a shaft can cause bearing dam-
age (including bearing housing cracks) in both the shredder and the trac-
tor.
A.
Length determination:
•
Bystanders and animals should be removed from the device area.
•
Connect the chopper to the tractor, without the power transmission shaft.
•
Raise the chopper to level the PTO shafts.
•
Measure the dimension between the retaining grooves between the PTO
shaft on the tractor and PTO shaft in the shredder.
•
Measure the same dimensions on the compressed drive system (power
shaft)
•
In case the power transmission shaft exceeds the measured dimension from
step 4, shorten the shaft.
B.
Cutting the telescopic power shaft:
•
Cut off the machine dimension (A) to the size of the notched drive system
(B) or (B-A). This dimension determines if the drive system is too long.
•
Add an additional inch (25mm) to this dimension so that the system does
not touch the working dimension, set the cut-off dimension (C).
•
Cut the dimension (C) at both ends with a metal saw. Plastic sleeves should
also be cut.
•
Blind the resulting sharp edges.
•
Assemble the shaft.
•
Check whether the PTO shaft connection is hassle-free.
