Tine replacement
A badly worn tine causesyour tillerto work harder and dig
shallower.Mostimportant, w orntinescannotchopandshred
organicmatteras effectively nor buryit as deeply as good
tines. A tine this worn(fig.19) needs to be replaced.
To maintain the superb tilling performance fo this machine the
tines should be checked for sharpness, wear and bending
particulary the tines which are next to the transmission (fig.
20). If the gap between the tines exceeds 3-1/2 inches, they
should be replaced or straightened as necessary,
New tines should be assembled as shown in figure 21. Sharp-
ened tine edges will rotate rearward from above (fig. 21).
