PTO shaft
The PTO shaft, supplied with the machine, is of stand-
ard length.
Therefore it might be necessary to adapt the PTO shaft.
In that case, before doing anything, consult the Manu-
facturer for the eventual adaptation.
When the PTO shaft is fully extended, the two tubes must
overlap by at least 6 inch (A). When fully inserted, the
minimum play must be 1,6 inch (B).
CAUTION: If the implement is used on
another tractor, always check that the
guards completely cover the rotating parts
of the PTO shaft.
