1. Slide the two halves of the shaft apart and
connect the halves to the tractor PTO shaft and the

3. Cut off the shield at the second mark. Now cut off
the same amount of the shaft as removed from the
shield and deburr the end of the shaft.
4. Cut the shield and shaft of the mower half so the
same amount is removed as the tractor half. Deburr
the ends, lubricate the shaft halves with grease and
reassemble the halves.
5. Install the IID shaft on the tractor and mower.
Raise and lower the mower to check for shaft
contact (bottoming-out) with the mower yoke end.
At the maximum compressed point, the shaft should
look like image. Make sure that at least 4” on the
inner shaft remains engaged in the outer shaft at all
times.
