Tine replacement should be carried out in the following way:
1.
Lower the rotor arms to the ground and make sure the machine is secure.
2.
Shut down the tractor, remove the key and apply the parking brake.
Check all tines on each arm. Rotate each arm to be worked on, to the rear outer
quadrant of the rotor. Remove the M12 bolt holding on each tine, working from the
outside in. Replace any bent or broken tines and secure using bolts and washers, in
the reverse order of removal. Ensure the outer tines have the tine retainer(s) fitted on
the outer end of each arm. Replace any damaged bolts, washers or retaining clips. All
tines should be in line with each other on any one arm. Check linch pins that lock the
quick fit tine arms in place.
On completion, remove damaged bolts and tines and dispose of responsibly.
