Gears; Adjusting The Depth Skid - Texas Equipment Vision 700 NC Assembly And Use Instructions

The tiller's speed is regulated not only by the speed of the engine, but also by the depth
skid, which is situated behind the machine.
Do not till very wet soil, as clods of earth will be formed, and these are difficult to break up.
Dry and hard soil may need to be tilled twice.
The outer blades can be removed if the tiller is to be used between narrow rows of plants
and crops. This reduces the tilling width.
The ground can be tilled in two directions, thus achieving optimum tilling.

It is important that you do not try to hold back the tiller. Using the machine must be a
comfortable and relaxing experience.

Gears

The tiller has two forward gears and one reverse gear.
The gear lever has 5 positions: R - N -2 - N - 1
First gear is engaged when the gear lever is pushed as far as
possible to the right, towards the handlebar.
This is the slowest gear and is recommended for ploughing,
for instance.
Figure J, 2.
Second gear is engaged when the gear lever is pushed to the left, away from the
handlebar.
This is the quickest gear and also the recommended tiller speed.
Figure J, 2.
Reverse is engaged when the gear lever is pushed as far as possible to the left, away from
the handlebar.

Neutral is between 2 and 1.

Always make sure to select the proper gear before activating the clutch (figure 4,b).

Adjusting the depth skid

The depth skid can be adjusted for tilling five different depths. The deeper the depth skid
sits in the soil, the deeper the tilling blades will work and the slower the machine will
advance. Using the right tilling depth will lighten your workload. The depth skid will need to
be adjusted to suit the ground conditions, and we recommend that you make several
attempts to see how deep the depth skid should be before deciding which setting works
best.
To adjust the depth skid, pull it backwards and up until it reaches the preferred height.
Position the depth skid vertically and lower it into one of the notches.
