CHECK DRIVELINE MAXIMUM
ANGLE
Refer to Figure 3
IMPORTANT:
To avoid premature driveline breakdown,
do not exceed an angle of 25° up or down with the
driveline while driveline is rotating. If needed, set tractor
3-point left lever to limit driveline angle at a maximum of
25° up.
1. Raise and lower implement to find maximum driveline
angle. Check to make certain the driveline does not
exceed 25° up or down.
2. If needed, set tractor 3-point lift height to keep
driveline from exceeding 25° up.

7. Start tractor and raise Rotary Tiller just enough to
remove support blocks.
8. Slowly engage tractor hydraulic 3-point control
lever to lower the tiller while checking for sufficient
drawbar clearance. Move drawbar in, aside or remove
if required.
9. Raise and lower implement to find maximum
extended driveline length. Check to make certain the
driveline does not exceed maximum allowable length
recorded in step 2.
10. If needed, set tractor 3-point lift height to stop
driveline from exceeding maximum allowable length.
11. Continue with “Check Driveline Maximum Angle”
