Firstly sorry if this is in either the wrong place or a repeat post as i am new to this forum and cannot see where the first attempt went.
Stripped out a 80Volt 15Kw motor / pump that used to power the hydraulics on the electric 3 Ton forklift at work and when i removed the pump have found the end of the shaft to be peg like and having watched many videos on You Tube over xmas have not seen this type befroe. I would like your advise if any one else has seen how to tackle mating this to the input shaft of a mainaul gearbox. Not got a car yet and would prefer a locost approach, but oif maching is required then so be it.
Hopefully these pictures will come out.
