ADJUSTMENTS

WARNING:

To prevent accidental starting that could cause serious 
personal injury, always disconnect the cultivator from any 
power source when making adjustments.

ADJUSTING WHEEL POSITION

See Figures 11 - 13.

The wheel position of the unit is adjustable. Holes on the 
wheel support rod offer different heights to choose from in 
both the A and B positions.

n

   Install  the  wheel  assembly  accessory  in  position  A  to 

transport the cultivator to and from the work area.

n

  For general cultivating, remove the wheel assembly to al-

low deep penetration of the tine blades into the cultivating 
surface.

n

  The wheel assembly accessory may be installed in posi-

tion B to allow use of the drag bar during cultivating.

ADJUSTING DRAG BAR POSITION

See Figure 14.

The drag bar may be used to help control the cultivator’s 
speed and depth of operation. It is located in a slot on the 
wheel assembly support and is secured with a pull pin. 
To adjust the height of the drag bar:

n

  Remove the pull pin.

n

  Shift the drag bar up or down, depending on the depth 

you are trying to achieve.

bar to secure.
