Driveline Installation
Refer to Figure 1-2:
1. Before installing driveline, apply a liberal amount of all
purpose grease to both the tractor power take-off shaft
and gearbox input shaft to ease removal at a later
time.

2. Attach inner driveline yoke to the Post Hole Digger
gearbox shaft with correct shear bolt & nut (#8 & #5).
3. Install driveline retainer set screw (#12). Turn screw
all the way in. Back out no more than 1/8 turn. Secure
with hex nut (#13).
Driveline Hook-up
Refer to Figure 1-1 on page 14:
DANGER
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
•
Tractor power take-off shaft shield, driveline shields, and
gearbox shaft shields must be installed and in good working
condition to avoid driveline entanglement and projectiles
flying off of the driveline.
•
Do not engage power take-off while hooking-up or
unhooking the driveline, or while someone is standing near
the driveline. A person’s body and/or clothing can become
entangled in the driveline.
•
Make certain driveline yokes are securely fastened at each
end. A loose yoke can work free allowing the driveline to
rotate uncontrollably causing implement damage and
bodily injury or death to anyone nearby.
NOTE: The PD10 driveline require an M8 x 1.25
grade 8.8 shear-bolt and PD15, PD25 & PD35
drivelines require a 3/8"-16 grade 5 shear-bolt.
Units with clutched drivelines (PD25 & PD35 only),
require a 3/8"-16 grade 5 shear-bolt.
35777
NOTE: The driveline requires the use of a retainer
screw to prevent the driveline from coming off the
gearbox in the event that the shearbolt is sheared.
•
Do not use a power take-off adapter. The adapter will
increase strain on the tractor’s power take-off shaft causing
possible damage to shaft and driveline. It will also defeat
the purpose of the tractor’s power take-off shield.
WARNING
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
•
Some tractors are equipped with two power take-off speeds.
Do not exceed 300 rpm power take-off speed or equipment
breakage may result.
•
Check driveline when lowering implement to make sure it
does not interfere with the tractor drawbar at maximum
depth. If needed, shut tractor off and move or remove
drawbar to prevent driveline damage.
•
Always follow “Tractor Shutdown Procedure” provided in
this manual before dismounting the tractor.
•
Do not operate a broken or bent driveline. Such a driveline
will break apart while rotating at high speeds and can cause
serious injury or death. Always remove the implement from
use until the damaged driveline can be repaired or replaced.
1. If driveline collapsible length has not been checked,
go to
“Check Driveline Collapsible Length” on
page 16. Otherwise, continue with step 2 below.
2. Park tractor and implement on a level surface.
3. Shut tractor down before dismounting. Refer to
“Tractor Shutdown Procedure” on page 13.
4. If tractor drawbar interferes with the driveline during
hook-up, disconnect driveline and move drawbar
forward, to the side, or remove.
5. Pull back on driveline pull collar (See Figure 1-3 on
page 16) and push yoke onto the tractor power take-
off shaft. Release pull collar and continue to push
driveline yoke forward until pull collar pops out and
locks in place.
6. Pull on driveline yokes at the tractor and implement
end to make sure they are secured to the tractor
power take-off shaft and implement gearbox shaft.
7. The tractor’s lower 3-point arms should be adjusted
for lateral float. Please consult your tractor’s manual.
8. Continue with “Check Driveline Interference” on
page 17.
IMPORTANT: An additional driveline may be
required if implement will be attached to more than
one tractor.
IMPORTANT: Check driveline minimum collapsible
length before completing “Driveline Hook-up” .
Structural damage to the tractor and implement can
occur if this check is not made. Refer to
“Check
Driveline Collapsible Length” on page 16.
