2. Install a carriage bolt through each of the slotted
holes in the roller bracket and into the tine guard.
3. On the TOP side of the tine guard, install a lock
washer and a wing nut onto each of the bolts (Fig. 3).
4. Make sure the square shoulder of the bolts is pushed
through the slotted holes in the roller bracket. Tighten
the wing nuts (Fig. 4).
NOTE: Do not over-tighten the wing nuts. Loosen the
wing nuts to adjust roller height.
ADJUSTING TINE DEPTH
Tine adjustment will vary depending on the type of soil
being cultivated and how it will be used. Generally,
adjusting the tines to break the soil 4 to 6 inches is
recommended for most gardens. Adjust the tines as
follows:
1. Stop the engine and disconnect the spark plug wire.
2. Loosen (do not remove) the two wing nuts on the
tine guard (Fig. 5).
3. Slide the roller bracket assembly down for shallower
penetration, and up for deeper tine penetration.
4. Once the tines are in the desired position, tighten the
wing nuts, making sure that the carriage bolts are
seated properly through the bracket.
5. If the tine depth is incorrect, repeat steps 2 to 4.
6. Reconnect the spark plug wire and continue use.
