OPERATION

Note: If tractor has 540 RPM PTO adjusting drawbar to 16’ position will gain additional 2” of telescoping.

“Bottoming Out” Check Procedure

• Disconnect driveline from the tractor and slide

the profiles together until fully compressed.

• Place a mark on the inner shield 1/8” from the

end of the outer shield and reattach the

driveline to the PTO shaft.

• With the PTO NOT TURNING, slowly drive the

tractor with mower attached through the

sharpest turn possible and watch shaft

movement. With the PTO NOT TURNING,

slowly drive the tractor with the mower attached

through the most severe terrain conditions

expected and watch shaft movement.

• If the distance between the mark and the outer

shield becomes less than 2” at any point there is a potential problem bottoming out the driveline and the

driveline should be replaced with shorter driveline. Contact your local dealer or Technical Service for

proper directions. OPS-R-0004_J

Engagement Check Procedure

• With the driveline attached, position the mower to the point where the telescoping driveline is at its

maximum extension. Completely shut down the tractor and secure in position.

• Mark the inner driveline shield 1/8” from the end of the outer shield.

• Disconnect the driveline from the tractor and separate the two driveline halves.

• Measure the distance from the mark to the end of the inner profile. This length is the amount the driveline

profiles were engaged.

• If the engaged length is less than 7” for a CV driveline and less than 6” for a non-CV driveline, the shaft is

considered too short and should be replaced with a longer shaft. Consult an authorized dealer to purchase

the required driveline length.

NOTE: If the driveline cannot be shortened and still maintain the required profile engagement, the operator

must be made aware of terrain conditions and avoid situations which pose a potential problem to avoid

damaging the driveline or move drawbar to 16” or 20” position for required clearance. OPS-R-0005_N
