DRIVELINE ATTACHMENT
Attach the cutter to the tractor 3-point hitch (or quick
hitch if available). Do not attach driveline. Raise and
lower cutter to determine maximum and minimum dis-
tance between the tractor PTO shaft and the gearbox
input shaft. If the distance is too large, the driveline will
be too short for proper engagement. If distance is too
small, the driveline may bottom out in operation and
damage the cutter or tractor.
The driveline length must be sufficient to provide at
least 1/3 driveline length of engagement during opera-
tion. There must be at least 4 inches of engagement at
the cutter’s lowest possible point of operation. The
