DRIVELINE ATTACHMENT
■
Make sure driveline will not bottom out at the
shortest length and that it has at least 4" overlap at
the longest length.
Attach the cutter to the tractor 3-point hitch (or quick
hitch if available). Do not attach driveline. Raise and
lower cutter to determine maximum and minimum dis-
tance between the tractor PTO shaft and the gearbox
input shaft. If the distance is too large, the driveline will
be too short for proper engagement. If distance is too
small, the driveline may bottom out in operation and
damage the cutter or tractor.
There must be at least 4 inches of engagement at the
cutter’s lowest possible point of operation.
If driveline is too short, please call your Woods dealer
for a longer driveline.
The driveline must not bottom out when raised to the
maximum height possible.
CAUTION
