Every 100 Hours or Annually:
It is important to ensure the safe operation of the shield components rotating freely over
the PTO shaft. Disassembly, cleaning, and lubricating of the safety shields (see Figures
5.4 and 5.5) should be performed annually or when they no longer rotate freely. Follow
this procedure:
1. Press the cone down and release the collar catches with a screwdriver.
2. Spread the collar bearing and remove from the tube. Clean the collar and the yoke-
bearing groove. After cleaning thoroughly, apply a generous coat of grease to the
bearing groove.
3. Fit the collar bearing into the groove and the tube, ensuring that the collar catches
are centered over the matching holes. The tube and bearing must rotate freely in the
bearing groove.
4. Fasten the cone by lining up the cone grease fitting over the grease-filling hole on
the collar bearing. Make sure that all catches are fastened and that the shield
rotates freely over the shaft.
