UNIVERSAL SLIP JOINT (PTO SHAFT): Refer to
instructions supplied with shaft.
To install the driveline separates slip joint halves,
then install them onto mower gearbox input shaft
and tractor PTO driveline according to illustration on
PTO shaft shield. Hold halves side by side, then
raise and lower the mower to determine that there
is no interference between halves when in the
shortest position, and that there is a specified
minimum amount of overlap (see PTO SHAFT -
PARTS LIST section) when in the longest position.
Once it is determined that the shaft will cause no
clearance problems, remove the halves, rejoin them
and install the assembled PTO shaft between the
tractor and the mower.
After attaching PTO shaft, slowly raise and lower
mower to make sure shaft will not make any contact
with “A-Frame” or mower head. If a problem exists,
change mounting position or lengths of lift chains by
removing or adding links.
