CONTROLS
DRIVE SAFETY CONTROL LEVER
Engages tines into forward; releasing returns machine to neutral.
Pulling down on the drive safety control lever engages the tines.
Releasing the drive safety control lever disengages the tines to a
neutral position.
BELT TENSION ADJUSTMENT
Proper belt tension is critical to good performance. After 30 minutes
of operation, all cables may have to be adjusted due to initial stretch.
Thereafter, check tension after every two hours of operation.
To increase belt tension:
1. Loosen upper jam nut. Turn nut up cable in 1/8” increments.
2. Tighten lower jam nut.
3. Check adjustment.
This procedure can be repeated until conduit adjustment bolts have
no more adjustment left. If no more adjustment can be made, belt
may have to be replaced.
DEPTH REGULATOR LEVER
Tilling depth is controlled by the height of the depth regulator lever.
To adjust tilling depth:
1. Remove detent pin.
2. Raise the depth regulator lever to position tines at chosen tilling
depth.
3. Align hole in depth regulator lever with hole in depth regulator
bracket and replace detent pin.
