Page 26: Pto
Previous examples clearly demonstrate that universal joint angle is directly related with life of the PTO. In order to reduce angle, it is necessary to increase the distance between snowblower and tractor. Too Large Angles at PTO Joints Reasonable Angles at PTO Joints To Avoid Acceptable If it is impossible to increase the distance between snowblower and tractor, in order to maintain a... - Page 27 Shear Bolts Shear bolts are built to break under shock loads on the fan or auger. However under certain circumstances this security is not adequate. Example: a sudden high impact shock on the fan may, in some cases break the fan shaft without breaking the shear bolt. If the shear bolt breaks, make sure to always replace it with the same grade of bolt (grade 5 for PTO series 20-40-50-60, and grade 8 for PTO series 80) it is necessary to always maintain this bolt very tight in order to keep the efficiency of the shearing mechanism.
