SERVICE AND ADJUSTMENT
HOW TO REMOVE AND INSTALL THE TINES
References to the right or left side of the cul-
tivator are from the viewpoint of the opera-
tor's position behind the unit.
All four tines are different and cannot be in-
terchanged. The tines must be correctly
installed or the cultivator will not function
properly.
To till around plants or in small areas, the
outside tines can be removed to reduce the
tilling width to approximately
7 inches.
WARNING:
The tines are self
sharpening and will become
quite sharp from use. Handle
carefully.
The tines will all wear evenly. If the tines are
being replaced because of wear, we recom-
mend that all four tines be replaced at the
same time. To replace the tines, do the fol-
lowing:
Tine

assemblies to the shaft (see Figure 10).
Remove the tines from one side of the

The cutting tips on the outside tines all
bend in toward the inside tine. When as-
sembled correctly, the letter R on the
right side, or L on the left side, will be
visible from the outside of the unit.

Repeat the above steps on the opposite
side of the unit.
