4.0 PTO
The PTO is a very important item. It drives the machine from the tractor and ensures the safe
operations when correctly maintained and installed. The PTO shaft has its own CE certification. Read
the PTO shaft manual, which is connected to the shaft itself.
4.1 PTO LENGTH
The length of the PTO is very important. When too long, the transmission of the tractor and/or VERTI-DRAIN
may be damaged. When the overlap length of the tubes drops under 150 mm (6") anytime, the PTO may be
damaged.
* the length changes when the machine is raised or when another tractor is used.
To cut the standard PTO from new or for another tractor, work as follows (see fig. 3):
1. Measure the distance between tractor PTO shaft and VERTI-DRAIN PTO shaft from groove to
groove when machine is on the ground at correct angle and attached to the tractor.
2. Measure the length B of the PTO in its shortest position from lock pin to lock bolt.
3. Split PTO in two pieces and remove safety cover from each end
4. Both tubes and safety cover ends should be shortened: (B - A) + 75 mm (3").
5. Deburr all items, use some grease and put all parts together.
6. Assemble the slipclutch side of the PTO to the VERTI-DRAIN transmission.
* Torque for lock bolt should be 80 Nm (700 lb.in.) and checked every 40 hours
7. Connect other side to the tractor.
8. Check overlap of tubes.
* Never run machine with a damaged PTO safety cover. Replace it first.

4.2 USE OF PTO
For the correct use of the PTO, the following items need to be checked:
1. During work the angle of the joints may never exceed 30 degrees
2. The joints have to be in line all the time
3. The tube overlap should always be minimal 150 (6") mm
4. Never use the machine with a damaged PTO protection cover.
5. For greasing see par. 13.0 Maintenance.
4.3 SLIPCLUTCH INFORMATION AND MAINTENANCE
The slipclutch will protect your machine against breakages when correctly used and maintained. The following
items are important.
1. The spring length is standard set at 33.0 mm , 1.300".
2. When the slipclutch slips, the bolt/nuts may be tightened a quarter of a turn at a time, till the
minimum length of 31.5mm, 1.250" on the spring is reached. Any further compression will
overload the machine
@ If too tight the machine may break down in the end or unsafe situations may occur.
3. The slipclutch should be maintained every month. Work as follows;
- Remove the top PTO protection cover of the machine
- Loosen up all bolts/ nuts two turns.
- Run the machine in the field at very low rpm's
- If the clutch slips, stop after 10 seconds.
- If it doesn't slip, loosen bolts more or go to (annual) maintenance.
- When the slipclutch has slipped, tighten the bolts/nuts up to the point the slipclutch works fine.
* Do not tighten it to the previous setting right away.
4. Annual maintenance:
- remove PTO from machine.
- inspect PTO shaft parts. Damaged parts should be replaced.
- disassemble the slip clutch by removing all bolts/nuts that hold the springs
- the slipclutch should fall apart in pieces.
- lay down the pieces and inspect parts. If parts are damaged or worn, replace them.
- clean all mating surfaces.
- assemble all parts and tighten bolts/nuts till the springs are all set at 33.0 mm , 1.300".
- Grease both tubes and assemble both PTO parts to each other.
- Assemble the PTO and mount it to the machine.
- Re-adjust the springs of the slipclutch when necessary as previously described.
@ The slipclutch protects the machine only against peak loads, when correctly adjusted. A continuous
overload will damage the machine in the long run and is not protected by the slip clutch. Do not
overload your machine.

5.0 WORKING DEPTH ADJUSTMENT.
The working depth can be adjusted when the machine is lifted from the ground as follows, see fig. 4:
Unscrew nuts 1 at each side of the machine one turn. Screw spindle 3 in or out. Every revolution is 4 mm
(0.160"). The decall 2 at each side of the machine shows the actual depth. When the correct depth is reached,
tighten the nuts 1 at each side.
@ Never adjust one side more than 4 turns. Compensate the other side first before proceeding.
@ The adjustment can be done with a special tool in the machine tool box.
@ The value at the decalls is only true when 400 mm (16") long tine are used. When shorter
tines are used, deduct the length difference to the 400 mm (16") from the actual decall reading.
@ Clean and spray the spindle and nut with anti-sticking grease oil every 100 hours, to prevent dirt
sticking on the nut.
6.0 TINE ANGLE ADJUSTMENT.
The adjustment of the angle of all tine holders is centrally located at the right side of the machine, see fig.5..
Raise the machine above the ground, slacken the nuts 2 at each side of the machine and nuts 3 at the center of
the machine, one turn each.
Adjust the tine angle by rotating the lever 1. The angle-value can be read from the decall 4 next to the handle.
After the correct angle is set, tighten all nuts.
@ An angle of 90 degrees means almost no tine movement in the ground. This is required for hollow coring
tines and advised for thinner tines.
@ From 90 to 75 degrees means more "kick action". This is advised for solid tines, depending on ground
conditions, tine size and customer requirements.
@ The angle of 90 degrees means that the tines penetrate perpendicular into the ground. This is only true if the
machine is correctly set, see fig.1. If this isn't correct a push force F, see fig 5. is applied, which can seriously
damage the machine.
