Figure 4.7 – Multicut Input Shaft Fitting & Removal
Proceed as follows:
Proceed to remove the taper pin, flat washer and nut from the machine end of the input PTO shaft.
See Figure 4.7 (A).
Install the input PTO shaft onto the splitter gearbox lining up the slot in the splitter gearbox shaft with
where the input shaft taper pin will be placed; see Figure 4.7 (A). Replace the removed taper pin, flat
washer and nut and tighten to a torque of 230Nm (170 ft/lbs).
It is best practice, when fitting the input shaft to wipe a small quantity of grease (NLGI #2 Molybdenum
Disulphide) onto the splines to aid assembly and later removal.
