REAR SHIELD ADJUSTMENT
The rear shield can be adjusted to control the soil
tilth or consistency. The finest tilth is achieved with
the shield in the lowest position. That position is
recommended for mulching, mixing, and burying
weeds, fertilizer, etc. The higher the shield is
positioned, the more course the finished results.
The higher positions are recommended for rocky
soil. To adjust, hook the chain onto the gear box
in the desired position. Fig. 17
THREE POINT HITCH ADJUSTMENT
HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
Set the tractor hitch lift control no higher than the
#8 position when the tractor PTO is engaged.
Fig. 18.
Note: Raising the tiller too high with the PTO
engaged can damage the tiller driveline.
TOP LINK ADJUSTMENT
The top hitch link is adjusted to position the tiller
parallel (front to rear) with the ground. Making the
top link longer will cause the rear of the tiller to go
down, making the upper linkshorterwill cause the
rear or the tiller to go up. To adjust the upper link,
first loosen the locking nut, make the adjustment
by turning the link body, then retighten the locking
nut. Fig. 15
LIFT ROD ADJUSTMENT
The right lift rod of the hitch is adjustable to
position the tiller parallel (left to right) with the
ground. Making the right lift rod shorter will raise
the right side of the tiller, making the lift rod longer
will lower the right side of the tiller. Fig. 12
