All 4 tines should be replaced at the same time because
they will wear evenly through normal use. Work on one
side at a time.
1. Put the On/Off Stop Control in the STOP (O) position
and disconnect the spark plug wire.
NOTE: It may be necessary to lay the cultivator back in a
horizontal position on a flat level surface with the
upper handle touching the ground.
2. Remove the click pin from each end of the tine shaft.
Slide the tines off of the shaft (Fig. 14).
3. Clean and oil the shaft.

four tines are marked with the letters “A” or “B.”
