replaced if any signs of damage are present.

shaft.
NOTE: Each tine assembly is stamped either "A" or "B"
(Fig. 9). Note each tine's location on the shaft for
easier reassembly

shafts.
3. Wipe each tine shaft clean with a damp cloth and
apply a light coat of oil (i.e. 3-N-One) or silicon-based
lubricant to each shaft. Do NOT use WD-40.
4. Rinse each tine assembly with water and thoroughly
dry each it before placing on tine shaft.
5. Re-insert each click pin to secure the tine assemblies
in place.
Tips for Replacing Tines
• Each tine shaft holds one tine assembly stamped "A"
and one tine assembly stamped "B".
• The bell sides of both tine assemblies (on each shaft)
should face each other (Fig. 9).
• The hub of each tine assembly (Fig. 9) should face
outward (away from the cultivator's gearbox).
