MAINTENANCE
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most
plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of
commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use
clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.
WARNING:
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-
based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact
with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken, or
destroy plastic which can result in serious personal injury.
LUBRICATION
All of the bearings in this product are lubricated with a
sufficient amount of high grade lubricant for the life of the
unit under normal operating conditions. Therefore, no further
bearing lubrication is required.
STORING THE TILLER
Clean dirt, grass, and other materials from the entire unit.
Wipe the tines with oil or spray them with silicone lubricant
to prevent rusting.
Do not remove the motor cover.
Order new parts to replace any that are badly worn or
broken.
Store in an upright position in a clean, dry place.
To save space, rest the tiller on the tine shield and bull
bar with the tines against a wall.
OPERATION
TINE PATTERNS
See Figures 12 - 14.
For most applications, the regular tine pattern will work best.
This is the pattern set by the factory.
When tilling in confined areas or rows, remove the outer tines
to create a narrow tine pattern.
NOTE: Do not force the tines on or off the shaft. If you
experience difficulties when removing the tines, apply some
penetrating lubricant on the shaft. When reinstalling the tines,
make sure to clean and lubricate the shaft and the tine hubs.
To change to a narrow tine pattern:
Remove the shear pins securing the outer tines from each
side of the tiller.
NOTE: The right outer tine is marked “D” and the left
outer tine is marked “A”.
Remove the outer tines.
When work is complete, place the outer tine marked “D”
on the right side of the tine shaft and the outer tine marked
“A” on the left side of the shaft.
