(2.7) Power Take Off (Pto); (2.8) Tire Spacing - Schulte SRW800 Operator’s Manual With Parts Listing

2.7 Power Take Off (PTO)
The implement is designed to operate at a PTO speed of 540 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 mower. 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 main 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 engaged. 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.
