The recommended quantities of grease in grams for each grease point are shown.
For the C430 linkage machine, the PTO shaft must be altered to suit the tractor
combination it's being fitted to. After measuring carefully, the PTO shaft halves should
be cut equally so that the PTO shaft assembly is kept as long as possible, whilst just
allowing enough room for its removal, when in a horizontal position. This will ensure
that a maximum overlap (ideally 200 mm minimum) is maintained, when extended, as
the machine is lowered fully. The angle of operation should never exceed 25°
misalignment, otherwise permanent damage will result. (See ‘Adjusting the PTO shaft
to the tractor’)
NOTE: Grease point intervals
The lower 3 PTO shaft grease points are to be greased at 8 hour
intervals. All other grease points are to be serviced at 60 hour intervals.
CAUTION: Ensure safety chains are attached to machine and tractor
Ensure the safety chains on the PTO cover sleeves are attached to both
machine and tractor to prevent them from spinning.
WARNING: Ensure PTO guarding is in good condition
Never use the machine if the PTO guarding is missing or damaged.
Entanglement in rotating drive line can cause serious injury or death.
Always stop the engine and ensure that driveline has stopped before
making connections, adjustments or cleaning out PTO driven equipment.
