TINE REPLACEMENT
J_,CAUTION:
Tines
are sharp.
Wear
gloves
or other
protection
when
handling
tines.
A badly
worn tine causes
your tiller to
work
harder
and dig more
shallow.
Most
important,
worn tines cannot
chop
and
shred
organic
matter
as effectively
nor
bury it as deeply
as good tines.
A tine this
worn
needs
to be replaced.
• To maintain
the superb
tilling
perfor-
mance
of this machine
the tines should
be checked
for sharpness,
wear, and
bending,
particularly
the tines which
are next to the transmission.
If the gap
between
the tines exceeds
3-1/2
inches
they should
be replaced
or straightened
as necessary.
• New tines should
be assembled.
Sharp-
ened tine edges
