IMPORTANT: Always check driveline length during initial setup and when connecting to
a different tractor.
In the collapsed position the driveline should be approximately 2” from bottoming out to
prevent possible damage to the tractor or implement. When the driveline is in the
maximum extended position, the ideal minimum overlap of the two halves should be
approximately 6”
(see fig. 19) .
If determined that the driveline is too long, follow these procedures to adjust the length:
1. Separate the two driveline halves. Connect one half to the tractor PTO and the other
half to the tedder.
2. On tedder DR0-330, raise and lower the tedder with the 3 point hitch to find the
position where the driveline is shortest. Hold the half shafts side by side and mark
the desired length on the outer female tube guard leaving a 1½” gap between the
end of the guard tube and bell guard.
3. Cut off both guard tubes the same amount as marked in step 2.
4. Shorten both drive tubes the same amount as guard tubes.
5. De-burr and clean filings from drive tubes and apply grease to outside of inner
telescoping tube.
6. Reassemble the driveline halves and connect to tractor and tedder. Raise and lower
tedder again to be sure driveline does not bottom out in its shortest position and has
a minimum overlap of 6” in the longest position.
7. Install both driveline safety chains. One should be hooked in a hole on the outer
driveline yoke shield and to the tractor to restrict outer shield rotation. The second
one should be hooked in a hole on the inner driveline yoke shield and to the
implement to restrict inner shield rotation.
If determined that the driveline is too short for your tractor, contact your local dealer.
