Fitting the PTO shaft
Attack the machine on the tractor. Split the tubes into both parts and
put one part on the tractor and another on the machine. At the machine
laying on the ground, minimum overlapping of the tubes mustn't be less
than 1/3 of total length. Cut too long part of the tube and clean the
edges. Cut on the proper length also the guard. Measure the length
when the PTO shaft is in horisontal position. Grease before putting them
together.
Too long PTO shaft can seriously damage tractor or flail
mower.
Never put PTO shaft on the tractor without all guards and
chains fitted properly.
Appropriate length of PTO shaft at the machine on the ground:
Appropriate length of the guard at machine lifted:
