Driveline Preparation
IMPORTANT:
A proper initial installation will give you years
of satisfactory service on your equipment.
Please read carefully following instructions
that have been specially included to help you
and ensure you are satisfied with your
purchase.
Danger: Tractors Too Big
It is dangerous to use a tractor that is too big and
powerful. The tractor will always be able to
overload the blower, even if the machine is
already at maximum capacity. Furthermore,
tractors being very high, the driveline angles will
be excessive which means the universal joints
will be very vulnerable and the life of the driveline
will be dramatically reduced.
HOW TO DETERMINE DRIVELINE ANGLES
IMPORTANT: To obtain the proper universal
joint angles, it is recommended to adjust the
three point hitch at the furthest point from the
tractor recommended by the manufacturer
The universal joint angle is directly related with
the life of driveline. In order to reduce the angle, it
is necessary to increase the distance between
the debris blower and the tractor.
Angles of Driveline Joints Too Large Reasonable Angles of Driveline Joints
Avoid Acceptable
Unequal Angles at Driveline Joints Equal Angles at Driveline Joints
