CONNECTION TO THE PTO SHAFT
Before installing the PTO shaft make sure that the RPM rating and the direction of rotation match
those of the tractor. Carefully read the PTO shaft and tractor instructions.
Furthermore, accurately read the instructions of the manufacturer of the PTO shaft and of the
tractor.
Before starting any activity, make sure that the guards are installed on the power take off of the
tractor and PTO shaft. Make sure that they cover the PTO shaft throughout its length.
When fully extended, the plastic pipes must overlap by at
least 1/3 of the length of the pipes (LT). When retracted, the
min. acceptable clearance is 1-2 cm (picture 6).

Check that the PTO shaft min. and max.
length are within the parameters of the
machine-tractor coupling.
Should problems arise, contact your
dealer. After the installation, anchor the
PTO shield to the tractor and machine
using the special chains; make sure that
it turns smoothly. If the PTO shaft is
equipped with safety devices, e.g. torque
limiters or free-wheel devices, install
them on the operative machine side. For
the use and maintenance of the PTO
shaft, please refer to the relevant
manual.
