crossing ditches and steep inclines

When crossing ditches with steep banks or going up

sharp inclines, it is possible that the main driveline

inner profile will penetrate into the outer housing

to its maximum depth until the assembly becomes

solid (driveline is at its extreme shortest length). this

type of abusive operation can cause serious damage

to the tractor and cutter drive by pushing the PtO

into the tractor and through the support bearings or

downward onto the PtO shaft, breaking it off.

Damage resulting from over collapse of the driveline’s inner profile and its outer housing may allow

the driveline to come loose from the tractor which could cause bodily injury to the operator or

bystanders and/or extensive damage to the tractor or Implement.

When confronted with an incline or ditch, do not approach from an angle which is perpendicular or

straight on as damaged to over collapse of the driveline may occur.

When crossing such terrain, the wings should be fully lowered for a lower center of gravity and

added stability.

10.5 Crossing ditches and Steep Inclines

When crossing ditches with steep banks or going up

sharp inclines, it is possible that the main driveline

inner profile will penetrate into the outer housing to its

maximum depth until the assembly becomes solid

(driveline is at its extreme shortest length). This type

of abusive operation can cause serious damage to

the tractor and mower drive by pushing the PTO into

the tractor and through the support bearings or

downward onto the PTO shaft, breaking it off.

Damage resulting from over-

collapse of the driveline’s inner profile and its outer housing may allow the driveline to come

loose from the Tractor which could cause bodily injury to the operator or bystanders and/or

extensive damage to the Tractor or Implement. OPS-R-0020

When contronted with an incline or ditch, do not

approach from an angle which is perpendicular or

straight on as damaged to over collapse of the

driveline may occur.
When crossing such terrain, the wings should be

fully lowered for a lower center of gravity and added
