SERVICE AND ADJUSTMENTS

TINE REPLACEMENT (See Figs. 24, 25, and 26)

CAUTION: Tines are sharp. Wear gloves or other protection when han- dling tines.

A badly worn tine causes your tiller to work harder and dig more shallow. Most important, worn tines cannot chop and shred organic matter as effectively nor bury it as deeply as good tines. A tine this worn needs to be replaced.

To maintain the superb tilling performance of this machine the tines should be checked for sharpness, wear, and bending, particularly the tines which are next to the transmission. If the gap between the tines exceeds 3-1/2 inches (9 cm), they should be replaced or straightened as necessary.

New tines should be assembled as shown in Fig. 26. Sharpened tine edges will rotate rearward from above.

This enables the trimmer to deliver a strong performance, allowing users to tackle thick grass, weeds, and overgrown areas without hassle. The engine is designed for easy starting, which reduces the frustration often associated with traditional gas-powered trimmers.

The PRRT875X is equipped with a 18-inch cutting swath, providing ample coverage with each pass.

This technology enables users to easily feed more line by simply tapping the head on the ground, minimizing downtime and enhancing overall productivity. Moreover, the cutting head is designed for quick line replacement, which is a significant advantage for users who require frequent blade changes.

Durability is paramount in the design of the PRRT875X. It features a rugged exterior designed to withstand the rigors of outdoor use. Additionally, its lightweight build, weighing approximately 10 lbs, allows for easy maneuverability and transport.
