Caution: Slip Clutches may become hot. Do Not Touch. Keep the slip clutch area clear of an material
that may catch fire.
Slip clutches have adjustable torque settings. The torque setting varies with the different compression of each spring.
All the springs should have an equal amount of compression.
IMPORTANT: Do not over-tighten the compression nuts as this may impair performance or cause premature wear-
ing of the slip clutch.
Slip Clutch adjustments
Slip Clutch must be adjusted before first use or after a storage period.
1.
Using a marker, scribe a line across the exposed edges of the clutch plate and friction discs.
2.
Back off compression nuts to free friction discs by turning each nut exactly 2 revolutions.
3.
Start the tractor and run the driveline at a low idle to slip the friction discs. This will remove the dirt, corrosion and
surface floss from the clutch plate faces.
4.
Disengage PTO, shut down tractor and wait for all components to come to a complete stop.
5.
Inspect the clutch and ensure that the scribed markings on the disc and plates have changed position. If any two marks
are still aligned, this is an indication that these discs have not slipped. It may be necessary to completely disassemble
the clutch to free them up.
6.
After ensuring all discs are free, tighten the compression nuts, uniformly, exactly 2 revolutions to resent the clutch
original pressure.
Working Depth Adjustment
The working depth is controlled by raising or lowering the side skids. If the skids are raised, the working depth increases.
By lowering the skids, the tilling depth with decrease.
Tailgate adjustment
The tailgate can be adjusted to help smooth and compact the tilled ground. Release the
chain and secure to the desired height.
Start up
After making the necessary adjustments, lower the rotary tiller until the blades are a couple of inches from the ground. En-
gage the PTO and slowly lower the tiller to begin working.
Removal and Storage
After
finishing, remove the rotary tiller from the tractor.
1.
Put the PTO driveline in a safe location so it will not become damaged.
2.
Clean and dry the equipment.
3.
Replace any damaged or worn parts.
4.
Check all bolts and nuts for tightness.
5.
Lubricate and protect the machine from the elements.
