CHAPTER 7: TINES
Euro tines
New
The RT 75 tiller is a counter rotating tiller equipped with
Euro tines. If the tines are properly installed, the tines will
cut into the ground and break up the soil. If the tines are
installed backwards, the tines will "hammer" the ground,
making the machine hard to control and will not till the soil.
See Figure 7.1.
As the tines dig through the ground, the grinding action
of the soil will put a sharp edge on the tines. Once the tine
has been ground to a sharp point, it must be replaced.
See Figure 7.2.
