WARNING! A loose shaft could slip off and result in personal injury or damage to cutter. When
attaching PTO yoke to tractor PTO shaft, it is important that spring activated locking collar
slides freely and locking balls are seated in groove on PTO shaft.
WARNING! Before operating cutter, check to make sure the driveline will not bottom out or become
disengaged.
DETACHING AND STORING
Lower the Mower to the Ground. Park the Tractor with the transmission in the correct gear (Automatic
Transmission-- Park; Standard Transmission--Neutral ). Set the parking brake, shut off the engine, and
remove the key, Wait until the PTO stops rotating before getting down from the tractor.
Disconnect the driveline from the tractor PTO and store it to prevent it from contacting the ground.

except when connecting or disconnecting driveline.
* Disengage the Driveline from the tractor PTO Shaft.
* Slide the Driveline together until it "bottoms out"
solidly.
