PTO Safety Guard
All tractors with a power take off have a large safety
guard (1) and a small tube type guard (2) for the
splined output shaft.
To prevent injury to the operator, the tractor power
take off safety guard and the shields for the
telescopic shaft assembly must be used.
When possible raise the guard when connecting an
implement and lower the guard to horizontal when
using the 3 point hitch and a non driven PTO
implement.

TRACTOR EQUIPPED WITH DRAWBAR USED FOR
ILLUSTRATION PURPOSES ONLY
WARNING: Whenever a PTO driven
implement is in operation, the PTO guards
MUST be in place (for most operations) to
prevent injury to the operator or
bystanders. Where attachments, such as
pumps, are installed on the PTO shaft
(especially if the tractor PTO guard is
moved upward or removed), extended
shielding equivalent to the PTO guard must
be installed with the attachment. Install the
PTO guard to its original position
immediately when the attachment is
removed.
