5.2 Fitting and adjusting the PTO shaft
5.2.1 Fitting the PTO shaft
Before fitting, clean the gearbox input shaft on the machine and
always use grease to push the PTO shaft onto the input shaft.
5.2.2 Adjusting the PTO shaft when first attached
When first attached, adjust the PTO shaft to the tractor accord-
ing to fig. 5.2.2. Since this adjustment is only applicable for this
one type of tractor, the PTO shaft adjustment must be checked
and repeated if the type of tractor is changed.
When attaching other PTO shaft halves onto the
tractor's universal joint shaft pr
ofile, fit them without
sliding the PTO shaft tubes into each other.
1. Hold the two PTO shaft tubes side by side and
check whether the PTO shaft tubes provide a
guaranteed sliding profile overlap of at least
40 % of the LO both when the machine is
lowered and raised.
2. When pushed together, the PTO shaft tubes
must not knock against the forks of the univer-
sal joint. A minimum safety distance of 10 mm
must be observed.
3.
To adjust the length, hold the PTO shaft halves
alongside each other in the shortest operation-
al position and draw a mark.
4. Shorten the inner and outer protective tube
equally.
5. Round off the cut edges and carefully remove
swarf.
6. Grease the sliding profiles and slide inside
each other.
7. Hook in the supporting chains in such a way
that the PTO shaft guard does not turn at the
same time during operation.
8. Only use the machine if the drive is fully
guarded.
Use PTO shaft with the full PTO shaft protection
and supplementary protection at the tractor and
machine. Replace protective equipment immedi-
ately at the first signs of damage.
