5. THE PTO SHAFT
The PTO shaft is a very important part. It provides the drive from the tractor and ensures, if
correctly maintained and installed, safe use of the machine. The PTO shaft has dedicated CE
certification. Read the PTO shaft manual, which can be found on the actual PTO shaft.
5.1 LENGTH OF THE PTO SHAFT
The length of the PTO shaft is very important. The drive on the tractor and/or Turf Tidy can
become damaged if this is too long. The PTO shaft can be damaged if the length of the tube
overlap exceeds 300 mm (12") at any given time.
The length changes when head 8
(see Fig.8)
is lifted, when another tractor is
used or when turning sharp corners.
The procedure for correctly adjusting the length of the PTO shaft if newly purchased or if another
tractor is used is as follows:
(see Fig.8)
1. Measure the distance between the PTO shaft connector on the tractor and the connector on
the machine, from groove to groove, when the machine is correctly angled on the ground and
is connected to the tractor and head 8 is in the most unfavourable position.
