Tine replacement
A badly worn tine causes your tiller to work harder and
dig shallower. Most important, worn tines can not chop
and shred organic matter as effectively nor bury it as
deeply as good tines. A tine this worn (fig. 19) needs to
be replaced.
To maintain the superb tilling performance fo this
machine the tines should be checked for sharpness,
wear and bending, particulary the tines which are next to
the transmission (fig. 20). If the gap between the tines
exceeds 3-1/2 inches, they should be replaced or
straightened as necessary.
New tines should be assembled as shown in figure 21.
Sharpened tine edges will rotate rearward from above
(fig. 21).
CAUTION!
Never tamper with the engine governor, which is factory
set for proper engine speed.
