Note:
If the dimension in step
is not at least 37 mm
(1-1/2 inches) greater than the dimension in step
, the
PTO shaft is too long; proceed to step
. If there is
enough clearance to allow the PTO shaft to collapse,
proceed to step
.

dimension
5.
Use the following calculation to establish how much
shorter the shaft must be, when connected, to ensure a
clearance of 37 mm (1-1/2 inches):
A.
Subtract the dimension recorded in step
from
the dimension recorded in step
.
Note:
Record this dimension.
B.
Subtract the result in step 5
from 37 mm (1-1/2
inches).
Note:
The PTO shaft must be shortened by this
amount.
6.
Cut the guards and the steel tubes shorter by the
calculated length.
Note:
Cut both halves of the PTO shaft.
7.
Deburr the ends of the steel tubes internally and
externally.
8.
Remove all debris from the tube sections.
9.
Grease the steel tubes.
10.
Assemble the PTO shaft and secure it to the blower
and tractor.
11.
Measure the shaft.
Note:
If it is not at least 37 mm (1-1/2 inches), repeat
the procedure.
12.
Raise the blower to the highest position.
Note:
There must be at least 75 mm (3 inches) of
overlap of the halves. Adjust the 3-point-lift stop, if
necessary; refer to
7 Adjusting the 3-Point-Lift Stop
(page 9)

Connecting the PTO Shaft
No Parts Required
Procedure
1.
Connect the PTO shaft to the blower-input shaft.
2.
Connect the PTO shaft to the rear tractor PTO shaft.
3.
Slide the PTO shaft fully forward.
4.
Depress the pin to secure the PTO shaft in place and
slide the PTO shaft back and forth to ensure that it is
properly locked (
).

Safety chain
5.
Connect the shield safety chains from the power shaft
sections to the welded clips on the link arms or to the
PTO shields (
Note:
Ensure that the chains have slack when the
blower is raised or lowered.
WARNING
If shield chains are not connected, they could rotate
during operation and cause bodily injury.
Keep all PTO shields in place and connect the
shield chains to the link arms or PTO shields.
