E.
Install the "B" gang on the
left outer holder at position #3 as
shown in Figure 20, after
following Steps A through C
above.
Step 5: Check the Installation
This completes the installation of the tines. To ensure that the installation is correct, check for the following:
❑
Make sure that the tips of the four
innermost
tines (on the left and right sides) are directly
opposite
each
other and pointing
toward
each other. See Figure 20.
❑
Make sure that the
cutting edges
of all tines will enter the soil first when the tiller is moving forward.
❑
Also read and follow the instructions provided in the Bolo Tines Maintenance Section on Page 16.

Installation Tips
If you encounter difficulty in aligning the two holes when
inserting the fourth bolt, check the following:
❑
Make sure that the bolts in the other three sets of holes are as
loose as possible.
❑
Use a screwdriver inserted through the two empty holes to pry
the tines together.
❑
Use a mallet to lightly tap the tines into the proper position.
❑
If the holes still cannot be aligned, remove the tine gangs from
the holder, remove the holder from the tine shaft and examine
the holder for rough spots in the groove between the lugs.
Smooth any rough spots with a metal file and repeat Steps A
through C. Refer to your Owner/Operator Manual for holder
removal and replacement instructions.
