causym CAUTION: Entanglement in rotating driveline can cause serious injury or death.

Keep tractor master shield and driveline shields in place at all times. Make sure rotating shields turn freely.

Wear close fitting clothing. Stop the engine and be sure PTO driveline is stopped before making adjustments, connections, or cleaning out PTO driven equipment.

To avoid injury, stop engine before attaching implement or working in area of implement hitch.

1. Stop engine and remove key. (See procedure in Operating the Engine section.)

IMPORTANT: If equipped, remove clevis assembly on drawbar when using PTO-driven equipment.

The drawbar must be in extended hole position to attach PTO-driven implement.

Short position hole should never be used for PTO-driven implement.

2. Lock drawbar in center, no-sway position. (See ADJUSTING DRAWBAR SIDE-TO-SIDE in this section.)

3. Put drawbar in EXTENDED position. (See ADJUSTING DRAWBAR LENGTH in this section.)

4. Remove clevis assembly, if equipped.

PTO Shaft Distance from PTO Shaft End to Hitch Pin Hole (A)
540 rpm - 6 Splinesa 356 mm (14.0 in.)
1000 rpm - 21 Splinesa 406 mm (16.0 in.)
a35 mm (1-3/8 in.) Shaft Diameter

 

5. Attach implement to drawbar before connecting PTO driveline. Raise hitch to full-up (transport) position if not used.

If implement will be connected to 3-point hitch, be sure drawbar will not interfere. Remove if necessary.
