back in optimal working order. The replacement tine cylinder

WARNING! Before performing any maintenance, always
disconnect the power supply to the unit and wait until the tine
cylinder comes to a complete stop. Wear protective gloves
when handling the tines.
1. Turn the unit over. Using an 8 mm Allen wrench, unfasten
the screw on the right side of the tines (Fig. 9).
2. Lift the screw and the bearing block cover to expose the
bearing (Fig. 10).
3. Wearing protective gloves, grasp the right side of the
cylinder shaft. Lift the cylinder out until it reaches the top
half of the bearing block cover, then slide it to the right to
disengage it from the motor drive (Fig. 11).
4. Carefully remove the new tine cylinder from the box.
You will notice that this cylinder is equipped with twenty-
four spring steel raker tines to maximize the raking
performance of your dethatcher. To install the new
cylinder, slide the square end of the tine cylinder into the
motor drive, seat the bearing into the bearing block, fold
down the bearing block cover and refasten the screw with
the 8 mm Allen wrench (Fig. 12).
