Operating Instructions
Attaching the PTO shaft:
Before installing the PTO shaft make sure that the RPM rating and the direction of rotation match those of the
tractor. Carefully read the PTO shaft and tractor instructions. Before operation, make sure that the guards are
installed on the power take off of the tractor and PTO shaft. Make sure that they cover the PTO shaft through-
out its length. Note: The PTO shaft may be too long and require shortening. See
“ Shortening a PTO
driveline ” below.
Press the locking pin on the PTO yoke and slide yoke on to the PTO of the tractor until the pin seats. Pull on
PTO shaft to make certain it is locked in place. Repeat the procedure for the machine end. Attach the PTO
cover
’ s safety chains to a stationary part of the tractor. Leave some slack in the chain to accommodate move-
ment.
Shortening a PTO driveline:
1. With the machine attached to the tractor ’ s 3 - point hitch, and
the PTO shaft not installed, separate the PTO shaft. Attach
the machine end to the machine and the other end to the trac-
tor PTO input shaft.
2. Raise the machine by using the tractor ’ s hydraulic 3 - point
hitch to its maximum lift height.
3. Hold the half shafts next to each other and mark them so
each end is approximately
1/2” from hitting the end of the
telescopic profiles.
4. Shorten the inner and outer guard tubes equally.
5. Shorten the inner and outer profiles by the same length as the
guard tubes. Using a rattail file, round off all sharp edges and
burrs. Grease the telescopic profile generously before reas-
sembling.
When fully extended, the tubes must overlap by at least 1/3 of the length of the pipes
(LT). When retracted, the min. acceptable clearance is 1
- 2 cm (3/8” - 3/4”)
