RE-ASSEMBLING DRIVELINE SHIELD
1. Replace white tabbed collar in groove
of PTO shaft.
2. Slide driveline shield tube over white
tab collar. Align slots/holes with holes
in tube.
3. Slide universal joint cover up tube
toward universal joint. Align grease
fitting on shield with white square tabs
on collars. This will properly align the
position notch and all three (3) tabs.
4. Slide collar shield into place until locked.
SLIP CLUTCH
IMPORTANT: Slip clutch components must
be free to rotate when necessary. After thirty
days or more, linings of slip clutch may draw
moisture. Linings may bond to metal parts
causing slip clutch to be ineffective, resulting in
machine damage.
1. Periodically check all nuts and bolts to
insure they are tight and secure.
2. Periodically loosen torque spring
bolts and allow slip clutch to slip for
approximately two (2) revolutions.
Loosen the bolts until the springs lose
contact with the flange yoke. This
ensures that the slip clutch is not in a
"locked" position.
3. Make sure that the clutch slips.
4. To retighten the slip clutch, tighten the
torque spring bolts until the nut makes
contact with the flange yoke and further
tighten one and a half turns (1 1/2).
This is a good starting point, further
adjustments may need to be made
based on ground conditions.
NOTE: Do not over or under tighten slip clutch
assembly or damage may occur.
SLIP CLUTCH OPERATIONAL CHECK
After the implement has been stored for
thirty days or more perform the following
operational check.
a. Loosen bolts and lock nuts progressively
until tension is relieved.
b. To aid in determining slippage, scribe/
mark
a line across clutch plate and Belleville
Spring.
c. With tractor at idle speed, engage
tractor PTO drive 2 - 3 seconds. Clutch
should slip without turning blades. If
clutch does not slip, contact your
authorized dealer.
d. Tighten bolts and lock nuts progressively,
leaving a gap of 4mm between clutch
plate and Belleville spring.
