First thing I learned . The slip clutch unit is VERY HEAVY . It landed on my left hand while installing it onto the tractor pto . Of course , not wearing gloves , luckily the driveway slowed the unit down from its' gravitational forces . But , it is mounted and ready to go . Going out to set up the slip clutch for my pto horsepower now . My HP is rated at only 16 so I'm on the very bottom end of whats recommended . I do not want to have to replace any weak points on the tractor .
This came from Woodland Mills out of Canada . The unit arrived in 4 days . Great ! The shipping package was also Great ! I'm using the welded steel cage for a firewood holder up in woods of New York .
Installation instructions were very easy to read as was assembly .( other than dropping the shaft onto my land and smashing my little finger ) . Had an issue with the threaded taper pin which connected the 2 shafts together . The threaded portion was so out of concentricity with the taper that it had to be persuaded into place with the help of " tiny " . " Tiny " is a ten pound maul . Luckily the pin never has to be removed .
More in a bit , and pics to come also . As I'm well aware , we all love pics !
