6. Reassemble the driveline halves and connect to tractor and rake. On DR0-308, raise
and lower rake again to be sure driveline does not bottom out in its shortest position
and has a minimum overlap of 6” in the longest position.
7. Install both driveline safety chains. One should be hooked in a hole on the outer
driveline yoke shield and to the tractor to restrict outer shield rotation. The second
one should be hooked in a hole on the inner driveline yoke shield and to the
implement to restrict inner shield rotation.
If determined that the driveline is too short for your tractor, contact your Authorized
Company Dealer.
CAUTION: Always work with the driveline as straight as possible. This will
prolong its life and that of its components. It is advised not to work at an angle
greater than 15 degrees.
4.04 - Ratchet Torque Limiter
The windrower is supplied with a PTO driveline that comes equipped with a ratchet
torque limiter. The PTO yoke end is attached to the tractor’s PTO, while the end with the
ratchet torque limiter is attached to the windrower.
The purpose of the limiter is to elastically transmit the desired torque to the unit,
absorbing any overloads by temporarily slipping. When the torque limiter slips,
disengage the PTO in order to prevent excessive wear.
