SIZING PTO SHAFT
STEP 1
Cutting the PTO shaft to length. NOTE: Be
sure to cut equal lengths of each PTO shaft
section. Clamp end of PTO shaft in a vice
and cut off shield where marked. (Figure 1
-A & 1-B)
STEP 2
Using cut section of the shield as a guide
cut shaft off the same amount. (Figure 2)
STEP 3
Repeat steps 1 and 2 for other PTO shaft
section.
STEP 4
Use a file to deburr PTO shafts. Clean up
all chips, burrs and filings from both ends of
the PTO shaft.
Note: If you shear the bolt that attaches
the PTO shaft to the gearbox re-
place with a grade 2 bolt only. Re-
placement with another grade of
bolt will void your warranty and may
cause terminal damage to the PTO shaft,
gearbox, or tractor.
