preferably not exceed 10-15 degrees, this favours the duration of the cardan shaft and of the transmission.
Always use the original drive shaft full of safety devices.
It is recommended not to make changes and adjustments to various PTO shaft which could endanger the safety
of work.
As the drive shaft body rotating at high speed, any action can cause imbalances which could affect the
functionality of the machine as well as the integrity of the cardan shaft itself.
WARNING!
Make sure there are people involved in the vicinity of the assembly and disassembly of the machine to the
tractor. To perform these operations, the operator must remain at the side of the machine and is the only person
allowed to stay close to it.
Do not stay and never go in the space which remains between your machine and the tractor; that in no case for
any reason.
-
First, raise or lower the two arms of the tractor lift until the coupling eyes are not the same height of the pins
below the crusher.
-
Leaving the machine on the ground (resting state) bring the two eyes lower coupling of the tractor, then
insert the 2 pins which connect the machine to the two trailing arms of the tractor and secure through the
proper safety locks to prevent any unwanted movement of the machine.
-
Continue attacking the third point using our adjustable tie rod drive. Then adjust the length of the arm third
point and lock it with the appropriate plugs and pins making sure the shelf equipment is parallel to the
ground.
Block then the third point with the pin supplied with the machine using the appropriate safety catch.
-
Connect the hydraulic hose couplings fitted to the distributor of your tractor. If the diameter of the couplings
do not correspond, you will use the reductions of the adapters. Consult an expert in hydraulic articles.
-
Insert the drive shaft and check that is securely fastened on the PTO of the tractor and the equipment.
Check that the protection is in place, is intercepted by the chain. (Possibly hook the chain to the machine)
-
Also check the position of the cardan shaft. This must be horizontal or with the attack on the machine slightly
lower than the tractor. (The ideal is working with the joint shaft horizontal, Fig. (A))
Fig.(a)
Use a cardan shaft suitable for your tractor, as indicated at the beginning of the paragraph.
-
If the machine after attached will be in an incorrect position, adjust again the rod of the third point to bring
the frame in the correct position (vertical) and with the skids parallel to the ground.
Is usually enough to attack the forestry shredder by adjusting the length of the rod so that it fits the initial
position of rest of the forestry shredder itself.
