Working Depth Adjustment

8.File and clean the cut ends of both drive halves. Ensure the drive halves slide smoothly together.

Do not run the tractor if proper driveline engagement cannot be obtained through these methods.

Connect the driveline to tractor PTO shaft, making sure the spring-activated locking collar slides freely and locks driveline to PTO shaft.

NOTICE

■If attaching with quick hitch, the distance between the tractor PTO and gearbox input shaft will increase. Please follow the steps as you would for a 3-point hitch to insure proper engagement.

Keep all persons away from operator control area while performing adjustments, service, or maintenance.

1.Raise the tiller off the ground.

2.Level tiller side to side. Check by measuring from the forward skid shoe pivot to the ground on each side. (Figure 5)

3.Adjust, using tractor 3-point arm leveling device.

NOTE: Keep the front of the tiller parallel to the ground.

4.Place two jack-stands under the tiller rotor shaft.

5.Loosen the 1/2” cap screws that act as the front pivots to the skid shoes. Remove the 1/2” cap- screws (63) that hold the rear of the skid shoes to the tiller frame.

6.Adjust the skid shoe to the desired tilling depth (Figure 6). Reinstall the cap screws in the rear of the skid shoe and tighten all cap screws.

Figure 6. Tiller Depth Adjustment

NOTE: Tillage depth is dependent on ground hard- ness, tractor speed, skid shoe setting, and tractor hitch adjustment. Multiple passes may be neces- sary to achieve tillage depth.

TILLER SIDE SHIFT ADJUSTMENT

■Make sure parking stand is secured in the down position and skid shoes are in hole one before performing the following service work.

1.Disconnect tiller from tractor.

2.Measure rear tractor tire width (outside to outside).

3.Calculate side shift needed. Divide rear tractor tire width by two and tiller width by two. Subtract tiller width from tractor width and add five inches. Check maximum tiller side shift capability on the specifica- tion page of this manual, page 4. The calculated side shift must be less than the maximum side shift. (Example: Tractor rear tire width = 70”, TS60 Tiller = 60”. 70/2 = 35”, 60/2 = 30”. 35-30 = 5” + 5” extra = 10” side shift.

4.Loosen nuts on U-bolts on lower clevis hitch (4), U- bolts on front gearbox stand (2), and bolts at the back of the gearbox stand (2). See Figures 7 and 8.
