Attaching PTO-Driven Equipment
CAUTION:
Shut off engine and disengage PTO before attaching PTO-driven equipment.
CAUTION:
High-inertia implements do not come to a standstill the moment the PTO control lever is shifted to the disengaged position. Do NOT approach the implement while it is "coasting down". Do not work on the implement until it has stopped.
CAUTION:
Before attempting to clean, adjust or lubricate a PTO-driven machine, the three-point hitch or u.j. shaft, always make sure the PTO is switched off and stopped, the tractor engine is shut off and the ignition key is removed.
1.
Align swinging drawbar (A) parallel to PTO shaft and lock it in position.
2.
Distance (B) from end of PTO shaft to hole in drawbar end should be 350 mm (13.8 in.) for the 540 rpm PTO and 400 mm (15.7 in.) for the 1000 rpm PTO.
If PTO splines are not aligned with the grooves in the u.j. shaft, keep the engine shut off and move the PTO control lever to a position marked "N". Then turn the PTO shaft manually to the correct position.
