4.1.1 DRIVELINE

The driveline is a mechanical component. When it is operating it can be a source of danger to the physical well-being of
those who work with it. Take the greatest care when carrying out operations that involve the driveline. Carefully read the
instruction manual supplied with the driveline. If you have doubts about the way it operates, if it is without its shields, worn
or broken, replace it with a new driveline that possesses the same characteristics and bears the «CE» mark.
If the length must be adapted, work with the utmost care so as to keep the telescopic tubes coupled to the maximum extent.
With the exception of length adaptation, it is forbidden to modify the driveline. If this is necessary, contact the Manufacturer.
Take the greatest care when inserting the driveline. Make sure that it is well locked on
both the tractor's PTO and on the machine. Also comply with the indications in the
instruction manual supplied with each driveline. Make sure that the driveline shield,
fastened with the relative chains, is free to turn without obstruction. Also check the
guards on both the tractor and implement. If they are not in a perfect condition,
they must be immediately replaced with new protections. It is very important for
the protective guards to overlap the driveline shields by at least 5 cm on both sides.
When the driveline is fully extended, in all work conditions, the telescopic tubes must
overlap to at least 1/3rd of their length (A Fig. 4).
When the driveline is fully inserted, the play must be at least 4 cm (B Fig. 4). Contact
the Manufacturer's Technical Service if this is not possible.
Before engaging the PTO, make sure that its rotation speed corresponds to the rate for which the machine has been designed.

4.1.2 DRIVELINE WITH ADJUSTABLE PLATE CLUTCH

The driveline has a safety clutch to protect the transmission components of the machine against stress and excessive overloads.
The clutch is calibrated for medium-duty use. If it slips during work, all the nuts that hold the springs must be evenly tightened by
half a turn and the operation of the device checked after about 200 meters of work. Repeat the operation if necessary. The clutch
must be adjusted by unscrewing the nuts if it is blocked.
