SHORTENING DRIVELINE

1.Move snowblower up and down to get shortest possible distance between tractor PTO shaft and gearbox input shaft. Leave snowblower in mini- mum distance position. Install jack stands under snowblower for support.

2.Separate driveline into two halves and connect them to tractor and gearbox.

3.Place driveline halves parallel to one another to determine how much to shorten the driveline.

4.Measure from end of upper shield to base of bell on the lower shield (A). Add 1-1/4" to dimension

(A).

7.Repeat step 4 through 6 for other half of drive.

8.File and clean the cut ends of both drive halves. Ensure the drive halves slide smoothly together.

Do not run tractor if proper driveline engagement can- not be obtained through these methods.

Connect driveline to tractor PTO shaft, making sure spring-activated locking collar slides freely and locks driveline to PTO shaft.

MACHINE BREAK-IN

Although there are no operational restrictions on the snowblower when used for the first time, the following items are to be checked.

A. After operating for 1/2 hour:

1.Check all nuts, bolts and other fasteners. Tighten to their specified torque level.

2.Check drive chain tension. Adjust as required.

3.Check that auger, fan and spout are in good condi- tion.
