Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 5674 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 23, Tractors and machinery for agriculture and
forestry, Subcommittee SC 2, Common tests.
This second edition of ISO 5674 cancels and replaces the first editions of ISO 5674-1:1992 and
ISO 5674-2:1992, of which it constitutes a technical revision.

6 Tests
6.1 General
After each test, note and record the condition of the guard, with particular reference to any fractures,
permanent deformation or detachment of components which could contribute to the deterioration of the guard.
For the test sequence, see Annex A.
The PTO drive-shaft guard is deemed to have passed the test if
the guard has no holes or deformation which leave the shaft unprotected, and
the guard has no breakage, crack or part separation.
6.2 Wear test
6.2.1 For the whole test, the shaft shall be revolving and, whilst revolving, shall be repeatedly extended to
its extended length (see ISO 5673-1), held for 1 min, then returned and held at its closed length (see
ISO 5673-1) for 4 min. This shall be repeated for the duration of the test period. See Annex A for the test
sequence.
Guards shall only be fixed using the normal fixing and restraining system as specified by the manufacturer.
Before the start and at the end of each of the wear test cycles, measure the torque required for the
immobilization of any part of the guard, having first run the guard for 1 min. The torque measured shall not
exceed 2,5 · m per bearing race up to a maximum of 10 N · m per complete driveline.
6.2.2 At the start and at the end of the wear test, measure the running torque that needs to be applied to
each guard tube in order to immobilize it when the shaft is revolving at 1 000 r/min.
6.2.3 Carry out the following procedure, in the sequence given.
a) For 48 h, operate at 85 °C.
b) For 48 h, operate at ambient temperature.
3
c) For 96 h, operate at ambient temperature in an atmosphere containing 0,5 kg/m of dust according to
5.2.3.
d) For 24 h, operate at 85 °C.
e) For 24 h, operate at ambient temperature.
3
f) For 48 h, operate at ambient temperature in an atmosphere containing 0,5 kg/m of dust according to
5.2.3.
6.3 Bearing corrosion test (Perform only if the guard has bearings running in contact with the
PTO-shaft)
Taking the shaft with the bearing in place, but with the rest of the guard removed, and supported horizontally
and stationary, apply salt water (see 5.2.2.2) to all bearings for the first 5 min of every hour for 48 h, then
leave to dry in free air (i.e. 48 cycles consisting of salt water application for 5 min of each cycle and drying in
free air for the other 55 min of each cycle).
4 © ISO 2004 – All rights reserved
---------------------- Page: 13 ----------------------
ISO 5674:2004(E)
The salt water may be applied by spraying, flooding or any other suitable method, provided that it at least
flows over all the metallic parts of the bearing system at some stage during the 5 min. It might be necessary to
rotate the shaft during the process to ensure good coverage, but this should only be done very slowly so as
not to throw the liquid off. The application of the salt water shall be carried out such that salt solution corrosion
of its inner tubes is avoided.
6.4 Strength tests
6.4.1 Dynamic radial loading test at defined temperature limits
Subject the guarded drive-shaft to a radial loading test at ambient temperature after each complete cycle of
the wear test (See A.1 and D.9).
The PTO drive-shaft guard is deemed to have passed the test if
the guard has no holes or deformation which leave the shaft unprotected, and
the guard has no breakage, crack or part separation.
6.4.2 Test on guard component covering joints
Revolve the PTO drive-shaft and, using a smooth, flat, 100 mm wide wooden beam, apply a direct force of
500 N to the cone of the universal joint for 60 s, in accordance with Annex A, perpendicular to the PTO
drive-shaft.
To avoid excessive vibration, the wooden beam shall be supported by a 20 mm thick rubber backing of
approximately A 20 Shore hardness. When applying the load, care shall be taken to ensure that no impact
load is applied.
Test over every joint.
The PTO drive-shaft guard is deemed to have passed the test if
the guard has no holes or deformation which leave the shaft unprotected, and
the guard has no breakage, crack or part separation.
6.4.3 Test on tubes
Support the guarded PTO drive-shaft in a horizontal, straight line by its usual end connections, at its extended
length (as specified by the manufacturer).
Revolve the PTO drive-shaft and, using a smooth, flat, 100 mm wide wooden beam, apply a direct load of
500 N for 60 s at right angles to the shaft guard at its midpoint, in accordance with Annex A.
Record whether any part of the revolving shaft was exposed during or after the test that would allow a 30 mm
probe to come into contact with that revolving part.
The PTO drive-shaft guard is deemed to have passed the test if
the guard has no holes or deformation which leave the shaft unprotected, and
the guard has no breakage, crack or part separation.

---------------------- Page: 14 ----------------------
ISO 5674:2004(E)
6.4.4 Dynamic swivel test
The dimensions of the cone guarding the universal joints shall be such that the cone will not be damaged by
contact with the master shield (see ISO 500), when the drive-shaft and guard are at the maximum allowable
angle and while the shaft is rotating as specified by the manufacturer in the instruction handbook.
If the guard cone does not come into contact with the master shield or any part of the drive-shaft when the
drive-shaft is at the specified maximum rotating angular position, this test need not be carried out.
To verify this requirement, perform the following procedure, with the PTO drive-shaft revolving at 1 000 r/min.
a) Test the drive-shafts with a nominal torque rating of < 1 000 N ⋅ m or a nominal transmitted power < 57 kW
at 540 r/min with the test master shield for PTOs of types 1 and 2.
b) Test the drive-shafts with a higher nominal torque rating or nominal transmitted power with the test
master shield for PTOs of Type 3.
Couple the PTO drive-shaft to a fixture with the test master shield integrated as shown in Figure 1. Use the
dimensions given in Table 3 and the nominal torque as specified.
Move the drive-shaft and guard repeatedly from the in-line position in a horizontal plane out to the maximum
operational angle specified by the manufacturer for the universal joint and back. Include in this cyclic
movement a dwell period of 5 s ± 2 s at the maximum angle position. Complete 100 cycles within
15 min ± 3 min.
The PTO drive-shaft guard is deemed to have passed the test if
the guard has no holes or deformation which leave the shaft unprotected, and
the guard has no breakage, crack or part separation.
6.4.5 Static axial loading test at ambient temperature
With the PTO drive-shaft and guard stationary, gradually apply an axial force of 250 N between each cone
and tube in both directions, holding the force for a minimum of 60 s. See Annex A.
With the PTO drive-shaft and guard stationary, apply an axial force of 1 000 N between the guard tube and
the PTO drive-shaft at every attachment bearing in both directions, holding the force for a minimum of 60 s.
See Annex A.
Test each end.
The PTO drive-shaft guard is deemed to have passed the test if
the guard has no holes or deformation which leave the shaft unprotected, and
the guard has no breakage, crack or part separation.
6.4.6 Dynamic axial loading test of the bearings at ambient temperature
With the PTO drive-shaft revolving and the guard stationary in the test equipment, apply an axial force of
500 N in both directions between the guard and the PTO drive-shaft bearings for 60 s. See Annex A.
The PTO drive-shaft guard is deemed to have passed the test if
the guard has no holes or deformation which leave the shaft unprotected, and
the guard has no breakage, crack or part separation.
