Coupling the Cardan with Drive Shaft
Before commencing operation, it is necessary to ckeck the length of the cardan
shaft, when functioning with the tractor, and in addition that it has been assembled
correctly.
- With the cutter properly coupled to the tractor, but with the cardan shaft
disconnected, move the hydraulic until it reaches the minimum distance (A) between
the drive shaft and muliplier.
- Draw back the "female" of the cardan and couple it to the drive shaft.
- At the same time position it above the "male", as if it were coupled and check
the dimensions.
- If necessary, shorten equally the "male" and the "female" as well as the
protectors.
Note: - IT IS NECESSARY TO SMOOTH OFF THE CUT PARTS (MALE/FEMALE), USING A
FILE. IMMEDIATELY REMOVE THE FILINGS AND LUBRICATE THE MALE WITH A
FINE LAYER OF GREASE.
- Every time the tractor is changed, re-check the length of the cardan shaft.
- The chains from the protection caps must be fastened to the cutter and the
tractor so that they do not become loose during operation.
The correct assembly of the cardan shaft is as shown in the figure below. Notice
the arrangements of the forks on the crosspiece, taking care when disassembling.
Incorrect assembly will result in excessive vibration, which is harmful to the trasmission.
