TILLING
The speed and depth of tilling is regulated
by the position of the depth stake and
wheel height.
The depth stake should always be below
the wheels for digging, it serves as a
brake to slow the filler's forward motion to
enable the tines to penetrate the ground,
Also, the more the depth stake is lowered
into the ground the deeper the tines will
dig,
DEPTH STAKE

clip and clevis pin. Change depth stake
to desired position, Replace the clevis pin
and hairpin clip.
- For normal tilling, set depth stake at the
second or third hole from the top.
