Connect the retaining spring to the two edges of the bearing ring.
62
Insert the shield aligning the radial holes with the reference pins of the bearing
63
ring and the hole on the bottom with the reference pin of the small bearing.
The grease fitting of the bearing must be aligned with the holes on the shield.
Check that the radial holes in the shield are aligned with the holes in the
64
reference pins of the bearing ring and that the reference pin is inserted.
Tighten the 6 flanged screws of the shield. Use of an electric screwdriver is not
recommended.
Fit the base cone with the tube, inserting the reference pin of the bearing in
65
the hole provided in the base cone. The grease fitting of the bearing is in the
hole of the base cone.
Tighten the 3 screws. Use of electric powered screwdrivers is not recommended.

HOW TO SHORTEN THE DRIVE SHAFT
Bondioli & Pavesi advises against altering its products. If modifications are required,
we recommend that you consult your implement dealer or a qualified service center
before proceeding. If the driveline is too long adopt the following procedure.
Remove the shielding.
67
Shorten the drive tubes by the required length.
68
Telescoping tubes must always overlap by at least 1/2 of their length in
normal operation and at least 1/3 of their length in all working conditions.
During maneuvers, when the driveline is not rotating, the telescoping tubes must
have a suitable overlap to maintain the tubes aligned and allow them to slide freely.
Carefully deburr the ends of the tubes with a file and remove all filings from
69
the tubes.
Shorten shield tubes one at time by cutting the same length that was cut
70
from the drive tubes.
Grease the internal drive tube and reassemble the shielding on the driveshaft.
71
Check the length of the driveshaft at its minimum and maximum extensions
72
on the implement.
