Night-time use
The tractor symbol printed on the cover indicates the tractor side of the
drive shaft. Always attach any overload or overrun clutches on the
machine side.

Labelling
Before commencing work, check that the drive shaft is securely
connected to the tractor and the work machine. Check the tightening
torque of any mounting bolts.

Checking
Friction clutches can reach very high temperatures during operation.
To avoid fire risks, keep combustible materials away from the clutch
and avoid long slip phases.
Do not touch!
Do not use the chains for handling or hanging up the drive shaft when
work is completed. Instead, use a support that is suitable for this
purpose.
Fig. 154
:
Handling
To prevent injuries or damage to the safety device resulting from the
drive shaft coming apart, keep the drive shaft in a horizontal position.
Use a suitable means of transport that can support the weight of the
drive shaft.

Transport
Carry out all maintenance and repair work only with suitable accident
prevention devices. Replace worn or damaged components only with
original parts supplied by the drive shaft manufacturer. No parts of the
drive shaft must be converted or altered without authorisation.
The drive shaft dealer will be responsible for any changes not
described in the present operating and maintenance instructions.
