PTO SHAFT MAINTENANCE
The PTO shaft is designed to telescope to allow for dimensional changes as the machine goes through its
operating range. A tubular guard encloses the driving components and is designed to turn relative to the
driving components. The shaft should telescope easily and the guard should turn freely on the shaft at all
times. Annual disassembly, cleaning and lubrication is recommended to insure that all components function
as intended. To maintain the shaft, follow this procedure:
1. Remove the shaft from the machine.
2. Pull shaft apart.
3. Use a screwdriver to pry the tabs out of the sleeves on each end.
4. Pull the shaft out of the plastic tubular guard.
5. Use a solvent to clean the male and female portions of the telescoping ends.
6. Apply a light coat of grease to each end.
7. Clean the grooves on each end where the tabs are located. Clean each tab also.
8. Apply a light coat of grease to each groove.
9. Insert the shaft into its respective guard and align the slots with the groove.
10. Insert the tabs through the slots and seat in the groove.
11. Check that each guard turns freely on the shaft.
12. Assemble the shaft.
13. Check that the shaft telescopes easily.
14. Replace any components that are damaged or worn.
15. Install the shaft on the machine.
