2.7 Power Take Off (PTO)
The implement is designed to operate at a PTO speed of 1000 RPM. Most tractors operate at either 540, or a
combination of 540 and 1000 RPM PTO speeds. The operating speed of the implement and tractor can be
determined by the number of splines on the driveline yoke and PTO output shaft. Those operating at 540 RPM will
have a 1-3/8" diameter 6-spline shaft and those operating at 1000 RPM will have a 1-3/8" 21-spline shaft or a 1-3/
4" 20 spline shaft. Refer to the tractor owner's manual for instructions to change PTO speeds on models that
operate at more than one speed.
If operating an older model tractor where the tractor's transmission and PTO utilize one master clutch, an over-
running clutch must be used between the PTO output shaft and the driveline of the implement. An authorized
tractor dealer can provide the over-running clutch and its installation if needed.
WARNING!
DO NOT use a PTO adapter to attach a non-matching Implement driveline
to a Tractor PTO. Use of an adapter can double the operating speed of the
implement resulting in excessive vibration and thrown objects. Adapter
use will also change the working length of the driveline exposing unshielded
driveline areas. Serious bodily injury and/or equipment failure can result
from using a PTO adapter. Consult an authorized dealer for assistance
if the Implement driveline does not match the Tractor PTO.
WARNING!
Never operate the Tractor and unit if the Implement input driveline is
directly connected to the Tractor transmission. Tractor braking distances
can be substantially increased by the momentum of the rotating implement
driving the Tractor transmission even though the Tractor clutch has been
disengaged. Install an over running clutch between the Tractor PTO and
the Implement driveline to prevent this potentially dangerous situation.

2.8 Tire Spacing
Tractor tires should be set a minimum of 60" apart
measured from inside of tire to inside of tire. Refer to
the tractor Operator's Manual or consult an authorized
dealer for instructions to change tractor tire spacing.
