Before installing the PTO shaft, make sure that it is the correct
size.
6.1 Sizing a PTO Shaft
PTO-drive Models
IMPORTANT! The PTO shaft that came with your machine
may need to be shortened.
CAUTION!
Wear suitable eye protection when cutting steel
tubes.
1.
Hook up the manure spreader to the tractor.
2.
Take the PTO shaft that came with your machine, fully
collapse it, and then measure the distance between the
locking yokes.
Call this measurement
A
.

Measurement A
3.
Measure the distance between the grooves for the locking
collars on each input, and then subtract 2 inches (50 mm)
from this measurement. Call this measurement
B
.
L
– 2" (50 mm) =
B

Measurement B
4.
If the collapsed length
A
(from Step 2) is longer than
measurement
B
(from Step 3), the PTO shaft must be
shortened.
5.
Subtract
B
from the uncut PTO shaft measurement
A
.
(A – B)
.
The result is the length that
BOTH
halves of the PTO shaft
should be shortened. Call this cut length
C
(
A – B = C).

6.
Pull the PTO shaft apart, and then measure and cut off
length
C
from each of the outer plastic covers and inner
metal tubes.
NOTE:
Use the cut off piece of outer shielding to
mark the inner tube. Leave the steel center
tubes longer than the plastic outer tubes;
otherwise, they can be harder to put back
together.
