SERVICE AND ADJUSTMENTS
TINE CARE
• 
For best results — Tine Blades should be kept 
reasonably sharp. The Tine Blade can be sharpened 
on a grinding wheel. Do not attempt to sharpen Tines 
while they are mounted to Tiller.
WARNING:  Shut off (disengage) the Tine 
Clutch Lever, the Tiller Engine and the Tractor 
Engine before making any repairs.
SPARE TINE DRIVE BOLTS
• 
The Tiller drive components are protected from 
damage by (shearable) Grade 5 hex bolts in the 
Tine Assemblies. The hex bolts drive the tines and 
hold them in the proper location. Should the Tine 
Assemblies strike or pick up a large hidden object 
or become jammed, the hex bolts will break and the 
drive components will not be damaged.
• 
Two extra tine hex bolts and nuts are included with 
the tiller. They are located in the Tiller Stake Support 
Bracket on the rear of the Tiller.
• 
The tine hex bolts are designed to be loose fit. Do not 
attempt to use a bolt or pin that is larger or harder 
than the original Grade 5 hex bolts.

If possible, store tiller indoors and cover it to protect 
from dust and dirt.

Cover tiller with a suitable protective cover that does 
not retain moisture. Do not use plastic. Plastic cannot 
breathe, which allows condensation to form and will 
cause your unit to rust.

engine and exhaust areas are still warm.
Immediately prepare your tiller for storage at the end of 
the season or if the unit will not be used for 30 days or 
more.
CAUTION:  Never store the tiller with 
gasoline in the tank inside a building, where 
fumes may reach an open flame or spark. 
Allow the engine to cool before storing in 
any enclosure.
