Checking the PTO Angle
No Parts Required
Procedure
Important:
Before checking the PTO angle,
remove the tines.
1.
With the aerator positioned on the ground and
lowered to the deepest location, use an angle
indictor to measure the angle between the PTO
and the aerator.
2.
Lift the aerator and fully retract the hydraulic top
link cylinder.
3.
Using an angle indictor, check the angle
between the PTO and the aerator.
4.
If your measurement is greater than 35°, perform
1 of the following to adjust the traction unit so
that you cannot raise the aerator past 35°.
•
Use the lift stop of the traction unit (if
equipped).
•
Move the lower links to a higher mounting
hole (if equipped).
