CULTIVATING HINTS
o Tilling is digging in, turning over and
breaking up packed soil before planting.
Loose unpacked soil helps root growth°
Best tilling depth is 4 to 6 inches. A tiller
will also clear the soil of unwanted
vegetation. The decomposition of this
vegetation matter enriches the soil.
Depending on the climate (rainfall and
wind), it may be advisable to till the soil at
the end of the growing season to further
condition the soil.
o Avoid tilling soil that is too dry as it will
pulverize and produce a dust that will not
hold water. Also, tilling soil that is too wet
will be hard on the machine and produce
unsatisfactory clods.
o Better growth will be obtained in tilled
ground if a relatively small area is tilled
properly and the tilled ground is used
soon after tilling to preserve the moisture
content.
,, The depth stake (on the back of the
cultivator) serves a dual purpose (see
figure, page 6). It helps regulate the
depth of the cut to a uniform level and
also acts as a brake to help the operator
control the speed of the cultivator.
° Lowering the depth stake will slow the
cultivator and make it till deeper. Raising
the depth bar wilt allow it to move faster
and till more shallow.
o if the cultivator stops forward motion and
tries to dig deeper than necessary, move
the handles from side to side to start
forward motion.
° Cultivating is loosening or digging around
growing plants which allows the plants to
flourish°
o When using the cultivator to remove
weeds, it is best to cultivate no deeper
than 1-1/2 inches. Cultivating deeper will
only pull to the surface ungerminated
weed seeds. You may want to raise the
depth bar to lessen the braking action.
° When cultivating around plants or close
areas, you may want to remove the
outside tines (see Tine Replacement
paragraph in the Service/Adjustments
section of this manual).
,_ CAUTION:
o Read the Owner's manual.
° Know location and functions of all
controls.
° Keep all safety devices and shields in
place.
° Never allow children or uninstructed
adults to operate cultivator.
o Shut off engine before unclogging tines or
making repairs.
° Keep bystanders away from machine.
° Keep away from rotating parts and tines.
They can cause injury.
