MACHINES CONCERNED: See machine type pages 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6

SUBJECT: EVOLUTION OF THE ENGINE/BEVEL GEARBOX COUPLING

VERSION OF 11/4/2016

Supersedes the version of 9/02/14: Change of cardan shaft screws

MLT 3B addition, changes to screws ref 4, modification of tightening of screws (cleaning of
threads with tap, tightening in a cross pattern and new tightening torque on page 9).

This new set-up consisting of a KTR brand flexible coupling as a replacement for the Glenco cardan
shaft is being installed gradually as standard on all machines with this kind of connection between
engine and angle gearbox.
At the same time, old machines with the Glenco cardan shift as standard can benefit from this
development.
The attached TI describes the after-sales service assembly procedure, and includes the list of
compatible machines.
This TI also includes details of the parts required for the repair of this new KTR coupling.
Note: Machines fitted with a Mercedes engine, as well as older models (pre-2000) are not included in the list of
models suitable for this new set-up.

TIME REQUIRED TO COMPLETE THE OPERATION:

1 Hour(s)

*: Technical improvements in code C are circulated for information. They are intended to provide
information for a solution or technical improvement. Implementation is not systematic and is
reserved for use to solve cases of confirmed failure. They may be subject to a warranty claim only
during the contractual warranty period(manufacturer's warranty and warranty extension).
