2) Place the two axle shafts one alongside the other (fig. 11).
3) Check that when the cardan shaft is stretched to its minimum length (repeatedly raise and
lower the machine to find this position), the tubes do not touch the bottom, so that there is
always a minimum clearance of 20 mm (0.79 inches).

amount (keeping the above-mentioned conditions), and take care to clean and lubricate them
before starting work.
5) When the cardan shaft is stretched to its maximum length (with the safety device released),
the cardan tubes must remain inserted at least 10 cm (4 inches).
6) Use the relevant chains to fasten the outer cardan shaft protection
