The PTO Shield also called plastic cover, PTO cover and PTO guard is an important component in agricultural safety, particularly when using tractors with various implements. In some regions, it is also commonly referred to as a “Guard”. Now, in many underdeveloped areas, the penetration rate of safety shield is still low. But with the improvement of modernization of agricultural machinery and the gradual increase of safety awareness, Safety Shield is increasingly valued by the industry. Here are two key functions of using Safety Shields:

1. Protect Operators: Matters involving people are always the most important ones, aren’t they? As we know, the bare rotating shaft has a very fast rotational speed, which can easily catch clothing hair or limbs. This situation can occur on many implements, such as rotary Mowing and cutting, tillage equipment, baling hay and straw, harvesting implements, manure spreaders, sprayers and dusters. The safety shield can establish a barrier between the operator and PTO shaft.
2. Protect PTO shaft: The safety shieldcan also help protect the PTO shaft from agricultural debris or environmental dirt, which can cause damage to the PTO shaft. This extends the lifespan of the PTO shaft and reduces the maintenance and replacement costs for farmers or business owners.Isn’t it worth spending some money to extend the lifespan of the PTO shaft?
