INSTALLATION

Always wear adequate safety equipment when performing any maintenance

or repair work.

The tractor stamped on the shield indicates the tractor end of the driveline.

Any torque limiter or overrunning clutch should always be installed on the

implement end.

Ensure that the driveline is securely attached to the tractor and the implement

before operating.

Check that all fixing screws are tight.

Attach the driveline guard restraints (chains). Best results are achieved when

chains are attached nearly perpendicular to the driveline guard. Adjust the

length of the chains to allow enough slack for full movement of the driveline during

turns, operation, and transport. Avoid excessive slack, which could cause the

chains to roll around the driveline.

Never use the safety chains to transport or support the driveline when you

have finished using it for storage. Always use the support provided on the

implement.

Clean and grease the tractor PTO and implement shaft before installing the

driveline.

Keep the driveline horizontal during handling to prevent the halves from

sliding apart, which could cause injury or damage the shielding. Use suitable

means to transport heavy drivelines.

Check that all components are in good condition and properly lubricated

before using the driveline. Clean and re-lubricate the driveline before storage

at the end of the season. Lubricate the parts according to the diagram; lubrication

intervals are in expressed in hours.

Pump grease into the crosses until it purges from the bearing caps.

Inject the grease gradually and avoid pumping the grease gun violently with

resulting high delivery pressure.

Use NLGI grade 2 grease.

BALL COLLAR

Align the yoke on the PTO. Slide the collar to the open position. Slide the

yoke onto the splined shaft. Release the collar and pull or push the yoke along the

shaft until the balls engage the groove and the collar returns to its original (closed)

position. Make sure the collar returns to its initial (closed) position and the yoke is

properly attached to the shaft.

SHEAR PINS

Use only bolts of the size and class shown in the implement handbook.

Choose the bolt length in such a way as to minimize protrusion.

Replace worn or damaged parts with genuine Bondioli & Pavesi spare parts.

Do not modify or tamper with any part of the driveline. For any operations not

explained in this instruction manual, consult your implement dealer or manufacturer,

or your local Bondioli & Pavesi representative.
