How to adjust the driveline with plate type clutch
The cardan shaft can be equipped with safety clutch to protect
the transmission components of the machine from stress and/or
excessive overloads.
The tilt of the cardan shaft must not exceed 10 degrees (Fig. 4).
The clutch is already pre-adjusted for average stress.
If it slips too easily (and overheats), it will be necessary to evenly
tighten all the nuts (1 Fig.21) that retain the springs.
If the supplied cardan shaft has a bolt-locked hub (2 Fig.21), check
that these bolts are fully tightened.
CAUTION
The clutch disks must be changed if the clutch still slips after
all the nuts have been tightened.
If the clutch does not slip, evenly unscrew all the spring fi xing nuts
(1 Fig.21).
Unscrew one turn at a time and check the clutch after having worked
about 300 meters.
Repeat the operation if necessary, remembering to unscrew one
turn at a time.
If the clutch maintains a temperature of about 40-50 degrees du-
ring work, this means that it has been correctly regulated. Never
fully torque the nuts since this would void the function of the
springs and, subsequently, of the clutch, thus damaging the
transmission components.
CAUTION
This inspection must be performed at the beginning of each
new working season.
Driveline with cam type torque limiter
This device (Fig.22) protects the transmission components of the
machine from stress and excessive overloads. Drive transmission
actually stops in the case of an overload and is automatically en-
gaged again by reducing the rpm rate of the PTO.
CAUTION
Avoid frequent and lengthy overloads.
The driveline is supplied calibrated by the Manufacturer.
Do not tamper with the device if operational faults occur.
Contact the driveline supplier or a specialized center if ne-
cessary.
