REPLACEMENT OF PLOUGHSHARES
- unlock the locking pin (pic. 10) remove installed ploughshare
- replace new ploughshare and re-secure safety pin
- do the same on the other side
Always change both tine pairs at the same time to avoid damage to the tool from imbalance.
OPERATING SPEED
For normal tilling, set the throttle control lever to “Max. speed” for best tiller action. The throttle should be
set to control forward movement to a slow walking speed for cultivating. Set the throttle control lever to
“Min. speed” to reduce stress on the engine when tilling is not being performed. Besides depth regulator
rod setting, variation of pressure on the handles also helps further controlof tilling depth and travel speed.
A downward pressure on the handles will reduce the tilling depth and increase the forward speed. An
upward pressure on the handles will increase the working depth and reduce the forward speed.
TINE CLUTCH CONTROL
Pushing down to engage tines into forward. Releasing returns machine to neutral.
DEPTH REGULATOR ROD
Serves a dual purpose. It regulates the tilling depth and helps the operator control the direction
and speed of the tiller.
Unfold the wheels bracket to raise the wheels to one of the high positions.
Lowering the depth regulator rod will slow the tiller and make it till deeper. Raising the depth
regulator rod will allow it to move faster and till more shallow.
Do not adjust tilling depth unless tine clutch control lever is released to the neutral position.
Switch off the engine before working on the machine. Wait until all moving parts
have completely stopped.
TO ADJUST THE TILLING DEPTH:
1. Remove the lock screw (pic. 2).
2. Raise or lower the depth regulator rod.
3. Align groove in depth regulator rod with the holes in bracket lock block and replace the lock screw (pic. 2).
TRANSPORT WHEEL
The wheel down and the depth regulator rod with curve up (pic. 4) when transporting the tiller.
Tilt the machine forward until the tines clear the ground. Push or pull the unit to the next location.
TILLING
Tilling is digging in, turning over and breaking up garden soil and prepare a seedbed for planting.
A tiller will also clear the soil of unwanted vegetation. The decomposition of this vegetation
matter enriches the soil. VAvoid tilling soil that is too dry as it will pulverize and produce a dust
that will not hold water.
Water a few days before tilling.
WARNING! If the soil is too stiff, it must be prearranged before cultivation
(moistened or loosen) to avoid damage of the plough shares or other parts of tiller.
