   To avoid damage to the PTO driveline, do NOT connect the driveline using a hammer or other equivalent tools. A damaged PTO shaft causes both the machine and the tractor damage.

   Too long of a PTO driveline damages the drive bearings of both the tractor and the machine.

   Following points must be checked before installing the PTO driveline:

   • Before coupling the PTO driveline, check if the PTO driveline telescopic members require shortening.
   • Make sure that the tractor PTO shaft is clean and greased.
   • Couple the PTO driveline at both the tractor and the machine side.
   • Make sure that the shaft sliding ring catches with the slot of the PTO.
   • To prevent the protection covers from turning with PTO driveline, make sure that the PTO protection is fitted correctly at the machine side.
   • Shorten the PTO driveline if necessary.
   
   

   Check PTO driveline length as follows:

   1. Correctly line up the tractor and the machine.

   2. Fit both PTO driveshaft halves (not connected).

   3. Hold both PTO driveshaft halves together. Make sure that the protection tubes (A and B) are at least 50 mm (1.96 in) shorter (X). Overlap of the drive tubes (C and D) must be at least 270 mm (10.63 in) (Y).

   4. If dimensions (X and Y) are not achieved, then shorten the PTO driveline.

   A - Protection Tube

   B - Profile Drive Tube

   C - Slotted Hole, 75 mm (2.95 in)

   D - Cover

   X - Driveline Length

   Y - Greasing Point Location

   Shorten PTO driveline as follows:

   1. To avoid damaging the grease lines, do NOT remove more than 100 mm (4 in) from the driveshaft.

      Determine correct length of the driveline.

   2. Remove the driveline from the protection tubes.

   3. Shorten both halves of the protection tubes.

   4. The length of the material cut from both ends (A and B) must be identical.

      To avoid damaging the driveline coating, cover the driveline to protect coating before clamping in a vise.

      Clamp the driveline in a vise.

   5. Shorten both driveline tubes.

   6. Verify that grease lines were not damaged during driveshaft shortening.

   7. After shortening the driveline protection tube, slotted hole (C) must be reworked.

      Remove burrs and sharp edges of both the protection tube and the profile driveline tube until they are smooth and clean.

      • Distance (X) is length of the driveline after shortening.
      • Distance (Y) is distance of the greasing point in relation to the bearing groove.
      • Slotted hole (C) must be 75 mm (2.95 in) long.
      
      

   8. Place the PTO telescoping members side-by-side in nominal working length (X) and mark off the slotted hole (C) for access to greasing point.

   9. Drill and saw, or mill the slot (C) into the protection tube.

   10. Place protection cover (D) over the slotted hole (C), to keep out dirt.
