Mounting PTO shaft
PTO shaft’s end with overrunning clutch should be mounted on mower’s side.
When connecting PTO shaft between tractor and mower make sure that external guard tube of the
shaft is on the tractor’s side. The PTO shaft plastic guards have to be secured by fastening their
small chains to immovable parts of tractor and mower. The PTO shaft must operate at the lowest
possible angle. This will ensure that both shaft and the machine last as long as possible.
