9. Slide the PTO shaft tubes together until they are

fully collapsed. Verify that the inside tube does not

protrude into the cross and bearing section of the

outer tube (Figure 16). If this happens, more will

have to be cut off the inside tube, to correct the

problem. Proceed to next step.

10. Measure the distance the inside tube protrudes into

the cross and bearing section of the outer tube

(Figure 16). Add this distance to the dimension

attained in step 8.

1. Cut off

11. Separate the two halves of the PTO shaft (Figure 17,

illustration 1).

12. Measure the distance from the end of each tube to

its safety shield (Figure 17, illustration 1). Record

the distances.

13. Using the dimensions determined in step 8, locate,

mark and cut off the shield and tube from each PTO

half (Figure 17, illustrations 2 & 3).

Note: More will have to be cut off the inside tube if

it was protruding into the cross and bearing section

of the outer tube.

14. Using the dimensions determined in step 11, locate,

mark and cut off just the safety shields to expose the

tubes Figure 17, illustrations 4 & 5.

15. Carefully deburr the ends of the tubes with a file and

remove all the filings from the tubes.

16. Grease the inside tube.

Note: Telescoping tubes must always overlap by

1/2 of their length in normal operation and at least

1/3 of their length in all working conditions. During

transport, when the drive line is not rotating, the

telescoping tubes must have a suitable overlap to

maintain the tubes alignment and allow them to slide

freely.
