Attaching the PTO to the Tractor
The PTO assembly must be fitted to the tractor that
powers the mower. The PTO telescoping shield and
drive tubes must be long enough to overlap by at
least 102 mm (4 in) while the mower and tractor
combination flex to a maximum distance from one
another. At the same time, the tubes, 1 and 2, must
be short enough so that they do not bottom out
(where the end of one tube contacts the base of the
other tube before the tubes are completely
collapsed).

The assembly must have sufficient overlap so that
the tubes do not separate when the breakaway
system, 1, operates.
IMPORTANT: Most tractors will require the PTO to
be shortened for 615 Disc Mower models PIN
628301 and above.
To adjust the PTO assembly length to fit the tractor,
do the following:

1. Separate the front part of the shaft, 1, from the
rear part of the shaft, 2.
2. Connect the front half of the PTO assembly to the
tractor’s PTO drive shaft.
3. Connect the rear half of the PTO assembly to the
disc mower’s input shaft.
4. Raise and lower the machine to find the position
where the distance between the tractor’s drive
shaft and the mower’s input shaft are the
shortest.
5. Hold the shafts side-by-side and mark the length
to provide 10 mm (3/8 in) clearance between the
ends of the shaft and the yoke, 3.
