TINE REPLACEMENT
STOP THE ENGINE AND REMOVE THE
SPARK PLUG WIRE AND COVER FROM
SPARK PLUG (FIG. 23) BEFORE CLEAN-
ING OUT THE TINES BY HAND.
A badly worn Tine causesyour Tiller to work harder and dig
shallower.. Most important, worn Tines cannot chop and shred
organic matter as effectively nor' bury it as deeply as good
Tines.. A tine this worn (Fig. 20) needs to be replaced,
To maintain the superb tilling performance of this machir, e
the Tines should be checked for sharpness, wear and bending
particularly the Tines which are next to the Tine Transmission
(Fig, 21), If the gap between the Tines exceeds 3- 1/2", they
should be repiaced or-straightened as necessary,
New Tines should be assembled as shown in Fig. 22. NOTE:
SHARPENED TINE EDGES WILL ROTATE REARWARD
FROM ABOVE (FIG.. 22).
USE CAUTION - TINES ARE SHARP°
