MAINTENANCE

Driveline & Shielding System

• Inspect driveline shielding system including tractor master shield, driveline guard, and implement shield. If the driveline guard does not rotate free from the shaft, is damaged, or the safety signs are missing or illegible, parts must be repaired or replaced. Perform maintenance per operator manuals. Check connection means for securing tractor to implement.
  
• Check Quick Disconnect Pin, Slide, or Twist Collar attachment yoke. Check Clamp Bolts and Set Screws for proper torque.
  
• Store your equipment inside and do not allow the driveline to rest on the ground. (12)
  
  
  
  Make sure the driveline is stored in a manner which will not damage guards. Rust and mud may interfere with the driveline locking device or you could unknowingly run over it with the tractor or other farm equipment.
  
• To replace driveline guards and safety signs, go to your farm equipment dealer. Brand name original equipment replacement parts are recommended. If they cannot supply the guarding or safety signs needed, contact the equipment manufacturer. If the manufacturer is not able to supply the guarding, retrofits are available at dealers or farm stores.
