15.4 Driveline Maintenance
The PTO drive line is designed to telescope to allow for
dimensional changes as the machine goes through its
operational range.
A heavy duty plastic tubular guard encloses the driving
components and is designed to turn relative to the
driving components.
The drive line should telescope easily and the
guard turn freely on the shaft at all times. Annual
disassembly, cleaning and lubrication is recommended
to insure that all components function as intended.
Ensure that the universal joints are lubricated, inspect
and lubricate every 8 hours.
When reassembling the driveline, ensure that
the driveline is assembled "in phase", to avoid
unnecessary vibration when the machine is running.
15.5 Shear Pin
The PTO drive line is designed with a shear pin at the
input yoke to prevent overloading the drive system.
Remove the broken parts from the yoke when the pin
shears and replace with genuine Wallenstein parts.
The drive system is designed to function well without
failing the shear pin. If it does fail, generally it is
being fed too fast or something very hard has been
jammed into the rotor or between the blades. Always
unplug the system and determine the cause of the
problem and correct it before resuming work. Shear pin
replacements are available from your dealer
