Pay attention to the tractor’s front wheels grip when the
equipment is set up and lifted; if the wheels appear to be too
lightened, ballast the tractor front part.
After executing the above-mentioned activities it is always
good to check that all bolts and nuts of your shredder are
tightened strongly (refer to the bolts and nuts tightening
table described in this booklet).
ATTACHMENT TO THE CARDAN SHAFT
Before assembling the cardan shaft, it is very important to check out that its number of revolutions
and direction of rotation match those of the tractor. Moreover, read carefully the instruction manuals
of the cardan shaft and the tractor manufacturers.
Before starting work, check the presence of the safety guards on the power takeoffs of the machine,
of the cardan shaft and of the tractor. Check in particular that the safety guards cover the cardan
shaft throughout its extension.
When at their maximum extension, the safety guards’ plastic
hoses shall overlap of at least 1/3 of their length (LT). When
in their maximum closing position, the minimum clearance
allowed shall be of 1-2 cm.
Check out that the cardan shaft minimum and maximum
length are the ones required by the machine-tractor
coupling.
Should problems arise, contact a skilled repair shop or
the cardan retailer. After installation, secure safety
guards both to the tractor and the machine using the
special chains and make sure that they pivot freely. If
the cardan shaft is equipped with other safety devices,
such as a pair limiter or freewheels, be sure to install
them on the machine side. As for the cardan use and
maintenance refer to the relevant booklet.
