A PTO drive shaft can be used as "primary transmission" (ISO 5673) only if compliant with regulations
and therefore bearing the "CE" mark. For the purpose of ensuring adequate safety levels when using
a PTO drive shaft, it is important to also read through the user manual of the tractor and of the
implement machine, making sure that the entire transmission system complies with regulations.

Adequate safety levels depend upon:
• Careful and proper use of the product in a manner that conforms to applicable prescriptions;
• The e ciency of the PTO drive shaft guard and of the protections installed on the tractor and on the
implement machine; in case either one of these parts is replaced, the relative safety rules need to be
followed.
8.
Before starting work, make sure that all protections on the PTO drive shaft, tractor and implement
machine are installed and e cient. All rotating parts must be protected and guarded.

10.
Avoid wearing work clothes with belts, aps or parts that might get entangled with any rotating organ.
In addition, long loose hair, bracelets, watches and in general anything that might get entangled,
represents a potential hazard. Any contact with rotating components may cause serious injury.
