Transmission shaft
Operator safety
1.
Always STOP THE ENGINE before attaching the transmission shaft to the tractor P.T.O. - most tractor P.T.O. shafts can be
rotated by hand to facilitate spline alignment, when the engine is stopped.
2.
When attaching the shaft, make sure that the snap lock is FULLY ENGAGED - push and pull the shaft until it locks.
3.
Always keep protection guards and chains intact and make sure that it covers all rotating parts, including CV-joints at
each end of the shaft. Do not use without protection guard.
4.
Do not touch or stand on the transmission shaft when it is rotating - safety distance: 1.5 meter. Also NEVER cross over
a rotating P.T.O. shaft to reach the other side of the sprayer.
5.
Prevent protection guards from rotating by attaching the chains allowing sufficient slack for turns.
6.
Make sure that protection guards around the tractor P.T.O. and the implement shaft are intact.
7.
Always STOP THE ENGINE and remove the ignition key before carrying out maintenance or repairs to the transmission
shaft or implement.

DANGER! ROTATING TRANSMISSION SHAFTS WITHOUT PROTECTION GUARDS ARE FATAL.
P.T.O. installation
Always read the manufacturer’s instruction book before applying any
installation of the transmission shaft!
First installation of the transmission shaft is done in the following way:
1.
Attach the sprayer to the tractor and set the sprayer height in the
position with the shortest distance between the tractor and the
sprayer pump P.T.O. shafts.
2.
Stop the engine and remove the ignition key.
3.
If the transmission shaft needs to be shortened, pull the shaft
apart. Fit the two shaft parts to the tractor and the sprayer pump
and measure how much the shaft needs to be shortened. Also
mark the protection guards with the same length to be shortened.
±
WARNING! Do only shorten the shaft if absolutely necessary!
±
WARNING! The shaft must always have minimum overlap of half a shaft length!
The recommended overlap (A) of the two shaft parts is 2/3 of the length.
The shaft must always have minimum overlap (A) of 1/2 of the length.

DANGER! As P.T.O. shafts are dangerous, always read the
manufacturer’s instruction book before applying any changes to
the transmission shaft!
