MOUNTING

MOUNTING TO THE 3-POINT HITCH
The winch can be mounted to the 3-point linkage of
any tractor. Power transmission is obtained through
universal shaft from tractor.
ASSEMBLY OF THE PTO SHAFT
If the PTO shaft is too long it may
get pressed when the three point
!
hitch is lifted up. This may cause
damage to the bearings of the
winch or to the PTO of the tractor.
CAUTION!
The PTO shaft must not be too
short in any position.
The PTO length is suitable, if the pipes do not reach
the bottom.
PTO is optional equipment.
1. Mount the winch to the 3-point hitch of the tractor.
2. Raise the winch high enough to get the PTO shaft
of the tractor and the winch to a horizontal level.
3. If you have a shortened PTO shaft available,
put one end into the drive shaft and check that
the distance of the locking of the other end. Take
into account the additional clearance of approx.
20 mm.
4. Fasten the other end of the PTO shaft in its place
and also move the winch sideways at the same
time securing that the axis does not base.

SHORTEN THE DRIVE SHAFT
!
CAUTION!
• First cut the thicker cover to a correct lenght (1).
Remember 20 mm clearance. Then cut away the
same amount from the form pipe. Make a similar
shortening to the second half of the PTO shaft. Re-
move the burr with the file.
• Connect the PTO shafts within each other. Make
sure by moving eevator carefully up and down
that the shortening of the axis is sufficient. Check
that the axis have 20 mm latitude.

each other.
