Shortening the PTO
shaft
Pull the PTO shaft apart and connect one half to the tractor PTO
shaft drive and one to the machine and secure them.
Place the two shaft halves next to each other and:
•
Check for a minimum of 250 mm overlap (b).
•
Check that the PTO shaft is not blocked at one end
(minimum distance (a) = 20 mm).
Shorten both the sliding tube and guard tube to the same size.
Deburr the ends of the tubes.
Remove the swarf.
Grease the sliding surfaces well.

There is a mark on the guard tube of the PTO shaft.
Check the length of the PTO shaft and shorten it if necessary.
Fit the PTO shaft onto the machine's PTO stub shaft.
Secure the PTO shaft with a locking pin.
