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.

Depth Regulator Lever Down = Shallower tilling. Place the detent pin in the top hole of the depth regulator lever for shallowest tilling.

Depth Regulator Lever Up = Deeper tilling. Place the detent pin in the bottom hole of the depth regulator lever for deepest tilling.

BELT TENSION ADJUSTMENT

Proper belt tension is critical to good performance. After 1/2 hour of operation, all cables may have to be adjusted due to initial stretch. Thereafter, check tension after every 2 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 are fully adjusted. If no more adjustment can be made, belt may have to be replaced.

!WARNING

Do not adjust tilling depth unless drive safety control levers are released to neutral position.

Always set the depth regulator lever in the transport position before starting engine, that is, place the detent pin in the highest hole of the depth regulator lever.
