T[NE
REPLACEMENT
_i_,CAUT[ON:
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.
New Tine//_

the superb
tilling
perfor-

the tines which

they should
be replaced
