HOW TO REMOVE AND INSTALL THE TINES
References to the right or left side of the cul-
tivator are from the viewpoint of the opera-
tor's position behind the unit.
All four tines are different and cannot be in-
terchanged. The tines must be correctly
installed or the cultivator will not function
properly.
To till around plants or in small areas, the
outside tines can be removed to reduce the
tilling width to approximately 7 inches.
WARNING: The tines are self
sharpening and will become
quite sharp from use. Handle
carefully.
The tines will all wear evenly. If the tines are
being replaced because of wear, we recom-
mend that all four tines be replaced at the
same time. To replace the tines, do the fol-
lowing:
Tine Removal
1. Put the on−off switch in the OFF posi-
tion.

SERVICE AND ADJUSTMENT

Inside Tine
Outside Tine
2. Disconnect the spark plug wire from the
spark plug.
3. While wearing gloves, remove the latch
pins that secure the tine assemblies to
the shaft (see Figure 14). Remove the
tines from one side of the unit.
Tine Installation
1. Clean and lubricate the tine shaft with a
few drops of oil.
2. First, install the inside tines onto the tine
shafts. Next, install the outside tines
onto the tine shafts and secure with the
latch pins.
3. When the tines are properly installed, the
cutting tips on the outside tines will all
curve toward the inside. The letter R will
be visible on the outside of the right tine
(see Figure 14). The letter L will be vis-
ible on the outside of the left tine.
NOTE: Make sure the tines are installed
on the correct side of the unit.
