Checking the PTO Angle

No Parts Required
Procedure
Important:
Ensure that the tines are removed
before performing this operation.
With the aerator positioned on the ground and lowered
to the deepest location, check the angle between the
PTO and the aerator.
Lift the aerator and fully retract the hydraulic top link
cylinder. Using an angle indictor, check the angle
between the PTO and the aerator. If this angle is
greater than 35°, adjust the tractor so that the aerator
cannot be lifted past 35°. Use the tractor lift stop
(if so equipped) or move the lower links to a higher
mounting hole (if so equipped).
