OPERATION
Engagement Check Procedure
• With the driveline attached, position the mower to the point where the telescoping driveline is at its maximum
extension. Completely shut down the tractor and secure in position.
• Mark the inner driveline shield 1/8” from the end of the outer shield.
• Disconnect the driveline from the tractor and separate the two driveline halves.
• Measure the distance from the mark to the end of the inner profile. This length is the amount the driveline profiles were
engaged.
• If the engaged length is less than 6”, the shaft is considered too short and should be replaced with a longer shaft.
Consult an authorized dealer to purchase the required driveline length.
NOTE: If the driveline cannot be shortened and still maintain the required profile engagement, the operator must be made
aware of terrain conditions and avoid situations which pose a potential problem to avoid damaging the driveline or move
drawbar to 16” or 20” position for required clearance. OPS-R-0005_O
