Rear Deflector
Refer to Figure 3-4:
Rear deflector (#2) can be adjusted closer to the ground
to produce a fine soil texture or raised to produce a
coarse soil texture. Adjust rear deflector up or down by
repositioning chain (#1) in slot “A”.

Refer to Figure 3-5:
The skid shoes can be adjusted to the desired tilling
depth by raising or lowering them:
1. Raise tiller off the ground. Place support blocks
under the tiller (not under the skid shoes) and
lower tiller onto the supports. Make certain the tiller
is secured while resting on the supports before
working on or around the tiller.
2. Always place tractor in park, set tractor brakes, shut
tractor engine off and remove switch key before
dismounting tractor.
3. Loosen pivot bolt (#2A) at the shoe’s front.
4. Remove adjusting bolt (#2B) at the shoe’s rear.
5. Adjust skid shoe (#1) up or down to the desired tilling
depth.
