Power take-off
3.17.1
Attaching implements to the power take-off
Before attaching implements to the tractor power take-off (PTO), make sure the
implement is designed for the used PTO speed (540 rpm or 1 000 rpm).
CAUTION: Observe all safety precautions in any operation involving
implements driven by the power take-off (PTO).
WARNING: Stop the engine and disengage the power take-off (PTO)
before attaching any implement to the tractor. Check that the
implement’s working area is clear before engaging the PTO.
WARNING: When a power take-off (PTO) driven implement is being
used, no personnel are allowed near the PTO drive shaft. Service
work on the PTO drive shaft should be carried out only with the PTO
disengaged, the engine stopped and the ignition key removed from the
ignition switch.

WARNING: After the power take-off (PTO) is disengaged, the
implement continues to rotate for some time (regardless of braking).
Do not approach the implement until it has stopped completely.
WARNING: The cover over the power take-off (PTO) drive shaft end
should always be attached when the PTO is not in use.
