ANGLES AT EACH END OF DRIVELINE
To avoid damages to the driveline or the
debris blower, it is recommended to always
keep tractor driveline and debris blower input
shaft parallel.
DETERMINING DRIVELINE LENGTH
IMPORTANT: Before using the equipment,
make sure the driveline is not too long. At
working position, the two half drivelines
must intersect each other sufficiently to
insure maximum efficiency but there must
not be any interference.
1. To determine the "L" length for your tractor
model first find the "X" factor by measuring
the horizontal distance between the end of
the tractor's drive shaft and the end of the
debris blower's driven shaft when the
debris blower is in transport position as
shown on Figure A.
2. Choose in the table below the "Y" factor
according to the tractor category and
deduct that number from "X" to determine
"L" which is the center-to-center length
between the universal joints.
L = X – Y
