If your tractor PTO output and implement input are both 1-3/8" diameter with 6 splines, this shaft is a direct match. The adjustable length (43" to 57") covers most compact and utility tractors paired with brush hogs, finish mowers, or tillers. Always measure the distance between the tractor PTO stub and the implement input shaft to ensure the compressed/extended range works for your setup.
The inner and outer steel tubes slide smoothly. To adjust, separate the two halves, align the splines, and cut the plastic shield tubes equally (if needed) following standard PTO shortening procedures. The shaft comes pre‑assembled and can be used between 43" and 57" without cutting, as long as the overlap between the tubes remains sufficient (minimum 6" overlap recommended).
The slip clutch acts as a mechanical fuse. If the implement hits a stump or rock, the clutch plates slip momentarily instead of transferring the shock load to the tractor's transmission or shearing a pin. Important: Before first use, loosen the clutch bolts and slip the clutch to prevent rust bonding. Adjust spring tension according to your tractor's horsepower – the manual includes torque specs.
Yes, the black PTO shaft comes fully shielded with a durable yellow plastic guard and a safety chain. The CE certification ensures compliance with North American and European safety standards for agricultural drivelines. Always attach the safety chain to a fixed point on the tractor and implement to prevent the shield from rotating.
Absolutely. The Series 5 rating handles both finish mowers (lighter, constant load) and brush hogs (intermittent heavy load). With 47 HP capacity at 540 PTO speed, it's well-suited for 4‑5 ft rotary cutters. Just ensure the implement's gearbox input matches the 1-3/8" 6‑spline profile.
