Using a power take-off (PTO) shaft
Observe the operating instruction of the PTO shaft manufacturer! An operator’s manual is supplied with every
PTO shaft.
Only use the PTO shafts specified by the manufacturer!
PTO shaft housing and guard cone as well as PTO shaft guard must be fitted and in a proper condition.
For PTO shafts, make sure the tube overlaps by the given amount in both transport and working positions.
Only attach and remove the PTO shaft when it is disengaged, with the engine switched off and the ignition key
removed!
When using PTO shafts with overload or freewheel couplings which are not covered by the guard on the
towing vehicle, fit the overload or freewheel coupling on the machine side!
Always make sure that the PTO shaft is correctly mounted and secured.
Attach the chain to prevent the PTO shaft guard from turning!
Before engaging the PTO shaft, ensure that the selected speed and direction of rotation of the towing vehicle’s
PTO shaft agree with the permissible speed and direction of rotation of the machine!
Before engaging the PTO shaft, make sure that no persons are within the danger area of the machine!
