BLADE ANGLE ADJUSTMENT

CAUTION

„Before changing positions of manual swing, tilt, or angle positions:

Park tractor on level ground, apply parking brake, level implement boom, shut off tractor, and remove key.

Make manual changes slowly and carefully to prevent hazardous movement of mecha- nisms.

Never stand in positions where you could become entrapped during adjustment changes or if the 3-point hitch suddenly lowers.

„Always secure lock pins with safety pins to pre- vent lock pins from bumping out of the positioning holes. Failure to do so may result in accidents and/or damage to blade.

Mechanical

The blade may be angled 15, 30, 45 and 60 degrees for forward grading, and 15 and 30 degrees for backfill- ing to right or left from center position without unhook- ing the blade from the tractor.

1.Raise the blade a few inches off the ground by operating the lift control lever of the tractor 3-point hitch.

2.Remove the safety pin (10) and lock pin (2).

3.Set blade at desired position and replace pins.

REVERSE BLADE

The blade is reversible without removing it from the tractor.

1.Raise blade off the ground.

2.Mechanical – Remove the lock pin (2), Figure 2, and rotate it counter-clockwise to the desired position and replace pins.

3.Hydraulic – Detach the angling cylinder (7) from the hydraulic angle arm (1), Figure 3, and rotate it counter-clockwise to the desired position. Attach angling cylinder (7) to hydraulic angle arm (1).

NOTE: In some cases it may be necessary to offset to the right and tip up the right end of the blade to rotate it.

RB750-4, RB850-4 specifications

The Woods Equipment RB850-4 and RB750-4 are two powerful and efficient rotary tillers designed for serious lawn and garden care. Both models embody rugged construction and advanced technology, making them ideal choices for homeowners and professionals alike.

The RB850-4 offers an outstanding working width of 85 inches, enabling the user to cover a significant area in a shorter time frame. This model is equipped with four durable, cast iron gearboxes that facilitate smooth operation and prolong the lifespan of the equipment. The adjustable tilling depth allows operators to customize the soil preparation according to specific needs, whether for seedbed preparation or incorporating organic matter into the soil.

On the other hand, the RB750-4 features a slightly narrower working width of 75 inches, providing agility in tighter spaces without compromising performance. It also employs the same four cast iron gearboxes for reliable power distribution. The robust tines of both models are specifically designed for efficient soil mixing, turning and aeration, enhancing soil structure and health.

One of the main features of both the RB850-4 and RB750-4 is the innovative Quick-Connect attachment that streamlines the process of interchanging with other implements. This design principle enhances productivity, allowing users to quickly switch tools without wasting time. Moreover, both models are engineered for compatibility with a broad range of tractors, enhancing their adaptability across various farming and gardening applications.

The advanced technologies incorporated into these tillers also include a protective shield that reduces the risk of debris getting stuck in the tines. This not only extends the operational capability of the tillers but also enhances user safety during operation. Additionally, the rear roller on both models ensures a smooth finish, leveling the soil after tilling.

In summary, the Woods Equipment RB850-4 and RB750-4 rotary tillers combine power, efficiency, and versatility into a high-performance package. With their robust design, adjustable features, and advanced technologies, these tillers stand out in the market, promoting healthier soil and contributing to successful gardening and landscaping outcomes. Whether for intensive tilling or light garden maintenance, both models offer unparalleled value and reliability, making them a worthy investment for both amateur and professional users.
