6. Betjeningsvejledning

The PTO drive shaft is designed to transmit power from a tractor to an implement. Ensure the shaft is correctly installed and secured before operation.

• Forbindelse: Connect the tractor yoke to the tractor's PTO output and the implement yoke to the implement's input shaft. Ensure both connections are fully engaged and secured with pins.
• Sikkerhedskæde: Always attach the safety chain to a fixed point on both the tractor and the implement to prevent the shaft from detaching.
• Engagement: Engage the tractor's PTO at a low RPM initially, gradually increasing to the desired operating speed. Do not exceed the maximum specified RPM for the shaft or implement.
• Frakobling: Disengage the PTO before stopping the tractor or implement, or before performing any adjustments.
• Angle of Operation: Avoid operating the PTO shaft at extreme angles, as this can cause excessive wear and potential failure. Maintain the straightest possible alignment between the tractor and implement.
