ENG
All rotating parts must be guarded. Contact with a rotating driveline can
cause death or serious injury. The tractor master shield, the driveline guards,
and the implement input connection shield form an interactive guarding system.
Ensure that all driveline, tractor, and implement shields are functional and
in place before operation. Damaged or missing parts must be replaced with
original equipment spare parts, correctly installed, before using the driveline.
Disengage the PTO, turn off the tractor engine, remove the key, and check
that all rotating parts have come to a standstill before approaching the im-
plement or performing maintenance work.
Do not approach, nor allow bystanders to come near the work zone or rota-
ting parts. Do not wear loose clothing, jewelry, hair, or anything which could
get caught in the machine.
Contact with rotating parts could cause serious injury or death.
Do not stand, lean, or otherwise come in contact with the driveline. Do not
step over or go under the driveline.
Telescoping tubes should overlap by 1/2 of their length in normal operation
and they must overlap by at least 1/3 of their length in any operating condi-
tion. If greater telescoping capability is required, contact the implement dealer or
manufacturer. During maneuvers, when the driveline is not rotating, the telescoping
tubes must have a suitable overlap to maintain the tubes aligned and allow then to
slide propely.
Always hitch the tractor to STATIONARY MACHINERY (pumps, hoists, ge-
nerators, dryers, etc.) so that the profile tubes are not over-extended, and
chock the tractor wheels to prevent rolling.
SINGLE CARDAN JOINTS
When operating, ensure that the joint angles are small and as equal as pos-
sible. The joint angles may vary widely during turns, but must never exceed 35°
under power or 45° during rotation. Disengage the PTO when the angle of the
joints becomes excessive or too unequal.
CONSTANT VELOCITY JOINTS
Constant velocity joints can allow large joint angles - up to 50°, 75° (SH
dimension) or 80° depending upon the type. These joint angles should only be
allowed for brief periods, for example during turning.
For drivelines with a constant velocity joint on the tractor side and a single cardan
joint on the implement side, the maximum recommended angles of the single joint
are 16° at 540 min –1 and 9° at 1000 min –1 to prevent irregular motion.
When used at night or in poor visibility, illuminate the driveline operating area.
Friction clutches may become hot during use. Do not touch!
Keep the area around the friction clutch clear of any material which could
catch fire and avoid prolonged slipping.
