ASSEMBLY Line the lower linkage arms between the lower linkage plates of the stick rake top, slide the linkage pins through the holes and secure with linch pins. Attach the top link to the stick rake. It may be helpful to support the linkage at the right height with a stable block or similar. Sway chains or bars should be used to prevent the machine swinging around in use.
Turning Lift the stick rake off the ground. Never turn before the tines are completely free from the soil, otherwise the inner most tines will be forced sideways and backwards. Alternatively a large wide sweep can be taken providing the tines never move backward. Reversing Never reverse with the tines in the soil, but make sure the rake is fully raised.
