Mounting PTO shaft
PTO shaft’s end with friction clutch should be mounted on tedder’s side.
The PTO shaft plastic guards have to be secured by fastening their small chains to immovable
parts of tractor and tedder.
Prior to commencing operation, examine and adjust length of PTO shaft, which is designed to
mount machine on tractor. In some cases it is possible, that the shaft is too long and therefore needs
to be shortened, so that there is adequate tolerance for the shortest possible distance between
tractor’s shaft and machine’s shaft.
Shaft's length should be adjusted individually for the tractor, on which the machine is
mounted.
NOTICE:
If need be, shorten the PTO shaft according to its operator’s manual given by the shaft’s
manufacturer (
Fig. 13
).
