TINE REPLACEMENT
A, CAUTION: Tines are sharp. Wear
gloves or other protection when handling
tines.
A badly worn tine causes your tiller to work
harder and dig more shallow. Most impor-
tant, worn tines cannot chop and shred
organic matter as effectively nor bury it as °
deeply as good tines. Atine this worn
needs to be replaced.

To maintain the superb tilling perfor-
mance of this machine the tines should
be checked for sharpness, wear, and
bending, particulady the tines which are
next to the transmission. If the gap
between the tines exceeds 3-1/2 inches
they should be replaced or straightened
as necessary.
For tines that are slightly worn, the bolt-
ed tine and hub assemblies can be
switched between sides to continue till-
ing in the same tilling mode. If tilling in a
different mode is desired then the bolted
tine and hub assemblies should be
switched back to their original side so
that the tine edge with the least wear will
be used.
