DRIVELINE
DIMENSIONS
A
PTO
driveline
is
supplied
with
the
machine.
To
accompany
the
variety
of
3.point
hitch
geometry
available
today,
the
driveline
can
be
too
long
for
most
machines
or
too
short
for
others.
It
is
very
important
that
the
driveline
be
free
to
telescope
but
not
to
bottom
out
when
going
through
its
working
range.
If
the
driveline
bottoms
out,
the
bearings
on
both
the
machine
and
tractor
PTO
shaft
will
be
overloaded
and
fail
in
a
short
time.
1.
To
determine
the
proper
length
of
the
driveline,
follow
this
procedure:
a.
Clear
the
area
of
bystanders,
especially
small
children.
b.
Attach
the
chipper
to
the
tractor
(see
section
5.8)
but
do
not
attach
the
driveline.
c.
Raise
the
machine
until
the
input
shaft
is
level
with
the
tractor
PTO
shaft.
d.
Measure
the
dimension
between
the
locking
grooves
on
the
tractor
PTO
shaft
and
the
machine
input
shaft.
e.
Measure
the
same
dimensions
on
the
compressed
driveline.
f.
If
the
compressed
driveline
dimension
exceeds
the
machine
dimension,
the
driveline
will
have
to
be
cut.
2.
When
cutting
the
driveline,
follow
this
procedure:
a.
Subtract
the
machine
dimension
(A)
from
the
uncut
driveline
dimension
(B)
or
(B-A).
This
dimension
determines
how
much
too
long
the
driveline
is.
b.
Add
another
inch
(25
mm)
to
the
dimension
to
be
sure
it
doesn't
bottom
out,
to
determine
(C)
the
cut
off
dimension.
c.
Use
a
hacksaw
to
cut
dimension
(C)
from
both
ends.
Cut
both
the
plastic
tubes
and
the
metal
cores.
d.
Use
a
file
to
remove
the
burrs
from
the
edges
that
were
cut.
e.
Assemble
the
2
ends
of
the
shaft.
f.
Make
sure
the
shaft
can
telescope
freely.
If
it
does
not,
separate
the
2
parts
and
inspect
for
burrs
or
cuttings
on
the
shaft
ends.
Be
sure
it
telescopes
freely
before
installing.
