Adjusting the Wheels
You can adjust the Wheels on the DR 2-CYCLE TILLER CULTIVATOR to one of
three positions (Figure 10). Use the lowest Wheel position for transporting the
machine across a smooth level surface while the Engine is not running. Use the
two higher positions for tilling in soil and to help stabilize the unit when tilling
at different depths.
1.
Pull the Locking Sleeve toward the Spring until it releases from one of the
three cutouts in the Vertical Guide.
2.
Slide the Wheel Set up or down to the desired position, and then release the
Locking Sleeve until it locks into one of the three cutouts in the Vertical
Guide.
Adjusting the Drag Stake
The Drag Stake is used to help regulate tilling depth and control the machine
from lurching forward during operation (Figure 11). Set the Drag Stake in its
lowest position of three to provide the greatest resistance to forward motion
allowing for deeper tilling.
1.
Pull the Lock Pin out of the Drag Stake Mounting Hole.
2.
Position the Drag Stake to the desired depth and reinsert the Lock Pin.
