Adjusting Wheels and drag Stake
The wheels on the cultivator can be adjusted to one of
three positions. The lowest wheel position is used for
transporting the cultivator across a smooth level surface
while the engine is not running. The two higher positions
are used when cultivating in soil and help stabilize the
unit when cultivating at different depths.
SEE FIgURE 6.
To adjust wheels up or down, SEE FIgURES 4 ANd
5.
1. Pull the locking metal sleeve against the spring until
it releases from one of the three holes in the vertical
guide.
2. Slide the wheel set up or down to the desired
position, and release the locking metal sleeve until it
locks into one of the three holes in the vertical guide.
The drag stake is used to help regulate cultivating depth
and control the cultivator from leaping forward during
operation. Resistance to forward motion is greatest when
the drag stake is set in its lowest position allowing for
deeper cultivation.
To adjust the drag stake, SEE FIgURE 4.
1. Pull the pin out of the drag stake mount hole.
2. Position the drag stake so the pointed tip is directed
downward.
3. Insert the pin into the hole that achieves desired
depth.
