3.2.3
PTO shaft
It is mandatory to only use the PTO shaft supplied as standard by Spearhead, shown in Figure 3.4.
Spearhead assumes no liability if a PTO shaft other than the one supplied is used.
DANGER!
A PTO shaft applied to a tractor is a mechanical part, which, when operating, can be extremely
dangerous for those using it. Therefore, you must be extremely careful regarding operations that involve these
mechanical parts.
CAUTION!
Before starting the power take-off, ensure that the rotation speed is the same as that required for
the mulcher (1000 rpm).
WARNING!
Spearhead declines any and all liability for damages caused by the mulcher to persons, animals
or property, resulting from use other than that described in this manual, or due to damage caused by
negligence or by not observing the instructions contained in this manual.
CAUTION!
It is forbidden to operate with the PTO shaft worn or damaged. Before starting to work, replace the
PTO shaft.
For any spare parts only contact the Authorised Centres.
Figure 3.4
The mulcher is fitted with a free-wheel in the transmission box and can also be applied to a crawler tractor or in any
case with no double clutch, without the danger that the inertia of the rotor prevents stopping the mulcher/tractor
assembly.
