3-4
For cultivating, a two to three inch depth is
desirable. The throttle should be set to control
forward movement to a slow walking speed.
With the outer tines installed, the working width
of the machine is 18 inches. For cultivation,
this may be reduced to 14 inches by removing
the outer tines. Use a 3/8" wrench to remove
the two self-tapping screws on the outside of
the tines. Replace the first tine removed as
shown. See Figure 3-6.
The minimum tilling width is 10 inches.
Remove both sets of outer tines by removing
the two self-tapping screws on the outside of
the tines. See Figure 3-8.
When laying out plant rows, be sure to allow
enough width to permit cultivation between the
rows. In growing corn or similar crops, check-
row planting will permit cross cultivation and
practically eliminate hand hoeing. See Figure
3-9.
Chain Case —The chain case is pre-lubricated
and sealed at the factory. It requires no check-
ing unless the chain case is disassembled. To
fill with grease, lay the right half of the chain
case on its side. Add 10 ounces of Benalene
#372-0 grease and assemble the left half to the
right half.
