How to Cut a PTO Shaft for the
Farmi Skidding Winch
| Mounting of the PTO Shaft Pay attention to the length of the PTO shfat when you mount it for the firsdt
time. A PTO shaft that is too long will break the machine or the transmission of the
tractor. A PTO shaft that is too short will fall apart in the middle.
Hook up the machine to the tractor and mount the PTO shaft
as recommended in the operator's manual. A common method of mounting the PTO shaft
is described below. |
 |
1. Mount the winch on the three-point
hitch of the tractor. 2. Cut the engine
and remove the keys. Lower the winch on a firm and level surface.
3. Lift the three point hitch so that the power intake shaft
of the winch is on the same height as the PTO of the tractor. The PTO and the power
intake should be closest to each other at that position.
|
| 4. Pull the PTO shaft
apart. Connect one half of the shaft to the winch so that the locking pin is locked
in place. Place the other end of the shaft flush with the end of the tractor's
PTO. Lay the ends side by side as shown in the figure to the right. Mark on
the shield how much must be cut off. The tubes must be so short that they cannot reach the
bottom in any winch position. |
 |
| Cut the plastic tube. Refer to fig 7. |
 |
| Cut a piece from the profile tube, which is the
same length as the piece which you cut off of the shield. (As shown on figure 8) Shorten the other half of the PTO shaft to the same length.
File sharp edges off of the profile tubes. (As shown
in figure 9) |
