Ensure the machine is safely
supported before attempting
maintenance work on tines. With
the machine attached to the tractor
it can be lowered onto the parking
stands for tine maintenance.
Do not attempt to assist fitting tine
points with a steel headed hammer,
this can lead to splintering of the
metal due to its hardness, which
can cause injury. If tine fitting
requires assistance, a copper/
hide or plastic mallet should be
used.
Ensure the tine leg is supported
when removing pins to ensure it
doesn‘t fall.
