3-Point Hitch Removing plastic shroud on PTO shaft

[dustinfox]

Just got done digging a bunch of holes with my auger and the end of the PTO shaft that connects to the auger got mucked up with sand and dirt. I would like to clean up the knuckle joint and grease it but it would be much easier if I could remove the safety shroud. It looks like it should come off but not sure. Anyone know how and if this thing comes off?

Thanks!

On the end of the shroud there will be most likely 3 rectangular shaped heads with slots across them. Take a common screw driver turn the heads 90 degrees and the end shroud should just slide right off. Good Luck.
