OPERATION
Assembly of the PTO Drive Shaft
After attaching the machine to the tractor, connect the PTO drive shaft to the power takeoff of the tractor (before
performing this operation stop engine and remove the key).
Before using the drive shaft read the use and maintenance manual of the drive shaft.
If you use a different drive shaft type than the one supplied with the machine, make sure that the covers of
the machine and the tractors overlap by at least 5 cm in compliance with existing law.
• Clean and lubricate the power takeoff.
• Lubricate on a regular basis the drive shaft following the instructions given by the manufacturer of the drive
shaft (see Use and Maintenance Manual of the drive shaft).
• Follow assembly instructions given by the manufacturer and direction indicated on the external side of the
guard (drawing of the tractor on the external pipe of the shaft towards the power takeoff of the tractor).
• Hang chains to avoid rotation.
• Make sure that the safety locking device (pushbutton or ring-nut) is properly installed and secured.

Check the direction of rotation and make sure that the power takeoff
speed is 540 rpm, because the machine has been designed for this
speed.
Connect the drive shaft last to the power takeoff and detach it first after operation.
