VERIFY TELESCOPING PTO SHAFT LENGTH
To verify proper extended and collapsed
lengths, use the following procedure:
1. Fully collapse PTO shaft and measure
length "L" (Fig. 22).
Enter
here:_______(1)
(Verify that outer tube does not bottom out on
surrounding plastic shield components).
2. Pull apart PTO telescoping shaft ends and
measure lengths "T" & "C" (Fig. 23)
Add "T" + "C" measurements together
Enter total here:_______(2)
3. Calculate maximum recommended
extended length:
a. Subtract line 1 from line 2
Enter
here:_______(a)
b. Divide line (a) by 2
Enter
here:_______(b)
c. Add line (b) to line 1.
Enter
here:_______(c)
d. Subtract 3 inches from line (c)
Enter
here:_______(d)
This is the maximum recommended
extended length.
4. Hitch tractor drawbar to cart, ensuring that
tractor and cart are on level ground and
coupled as straight as practical.
5. Connect PTO shaft to tractor, and measure
length "L" from same points as used in step
1.
Ensure that this measurement does
not exceed the maximum recommended
extended length calculated in step 3
above.
If necessary, choose a shorter
drawbar position, or obtain a longer PTO
shaft assembly before operating cart.

WARNING! PROPER EXTENDED
AND COLLAPSED LENGTHS OF THE
TELESCOPING PTO SHAFT MUST BE VERI-
FIED BEFORE FIRST OPERATION. IF THE
EXTENDED LENGTH OF THE PTO SHAFT
IS NOT SUFFICIENT, IT MAY BECOME UN-
COUPLED IN OPERATION AND CAUSE SE-
RIOUS INJURY OR DEATH FROM CONTACT
WITH UNCONTROLLED FLAILING OF PTO
SHAFT ASSEMBLY COMPONENTS.
An excessive collapsed length can result in
damage to the PTO driveline and attached
components. This is most likely to occur
during extreme turning angles and/or travel
over rough terrain. Conditions are amplifi ed
on tractors with tracks operating in uneven
terrain, particularly rice levies. Damaged
driveline components can result in unsafe
operation and severely reduced driveline
component life.
NOTE: Do not exceed 10 degrees beyond a
straight pull line while operating the PTO.
