seated properly. If not, deflate the tire, unseat beads and repeat the above
mounting procedure. After properly seating beads, adjust to pressure
recommended. (See above specs.)
POWER TAKE-OFF SHAFTS:
Keep all shields in place.
When operating the PTO, be sure the tractor shield is always in place, covering the
exposed PTO shaft.
Before dismounting from the tractor, stop the PTO, put the tractor in neutral, set
the brakes in lock position and shut off engine.
When ready to engage PTO shaft, be sure engine RPM is at idle speed. Engaging
PTO at full throttle will cause high shock loads to driveline, with the potential for
future failure.
NOTE: Do not exceed the recommended PTO speed of 540 RPM.
LUBRICATION:
A properly maintained lubrication schedule will provide a smooth running
machine for many years.
All pivot locations have grease fittings. The following information shows and
describes where all lubrication points are located. Use a quality EP2 bearing
grease or equivalent.
