SHORTENING THE PTO SHAFT
1. Connect the device to the tractor's 3-point hitch.
2. Lift the machine with the hitch so that the distance
between the splined shafts is at its shortest.
3. First cut the thicker shaft shield to the correct
length. Remember to leave a 40 mm clearance.
Next, cut a similar length from the profile tube.
Shorten the other half of the PTO shaft in a similar
manner. File off the burr.
4. Interconnect the tubes and check that the shaft is
sufficiently shortened by carefully lifting up and
down with the hoist. Ensure that the shaft has a 40
mm movement clearance. Also move the machi-
ne sideways to check that the shaft moves freely.
Distance A, when the distance between the splined shafts
is at its shortest.
