MAINTENANCE
DRIVELINE LUBRICATION
Grease Fittings are located on the Cross Assembly of each U-Joint and on the telescoping tubes. Grease the
U-Joint after each 8 hours of use. Figure Mnt-0024 & MntP-R-0026. Do not force grease through the Needle
Cup Assemblies. Grease the telescoping tubes after every 8 hours use. Some PTO-to-Hitch connections may
necessitate cutting a hole in the shields to be able to align the Grease Fitting holes for lubrication. Lubricate the
shield bearings every 16 hours. Figure Mnt-R-0088.
DRIVELINE SHIELD REMOVAL
The Driveline Integral Shields should not become dented or otherwise damaged. The Integral Shield Assembly
has a Nylon Bearing at each end and should turn freely. This nylon bearing should require lubrication every 8
hours. To remove the Integral Shields for replacement or repair, turn the three Nylon Bolts 1/4 turn in the Shield
Slots of the Cone and Tube and remove them. Slip the Shield Cone Assembly off inner section of the Driveline.
Install the new or repaired Shield on the Driveline. Place the split Nylon Bearing over the Driveline Housing of
Shaft against the Yoke and in the Bearing groove. Install shield over the Housing so the Nylon Bearing fits into
the Shield Bearing Retainer. Align a slot in the Shield Cone with one of the slots in the Shield. Put one of the
Nylon Bolts back in through the aligned slots and turn until it is perpendicular to the slots. Add the other two
Nylon Bolts.
Make certain that the Driveline Integral Shields are free to telescope and rotate around the
Driveline without binding.
