of left hand wheel. Pull wheel out from tiller about 1-1/2
inches.

be in groove on top of idler pulley (fi g. 17). Note positon
of belt to guides.

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 (fi g. 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 trans mis sion (fi g.
20). If the gap between the tines exceeds 3-1/2 inches, they
should be replaced or straightened as nec es sary.
New tines should be assembled as shown in fi gure 21. Sharp-
ened tine edges will rotate rearward from above (fi g. 21).
IMPORTANT!
Never tamper with the engine governor, which is factory set
for proper engine speed.
