manual abstract
Lock with jam nut so that . bars are free to swing. 2. Attach depth crank (2) at (3) and (3). Adjusting nuts should be equally spaced on threads. 3. Clamp wheel standards to draw bar assembly as shown at (4) and (4). 4. Clamp gang tool holders to tool bar as shown at (5) and (5). 5. Attach the four tool standards to the right and left tool frame assemblies as illustrated at (6). 6. Assemble upper and lower tool control handle as shown. 7. Attach tool handle assembly (7) to draw bar assembly using clamp as shown. Be sure the tool handle is installed, especially when cultivating straddling the row. The close control which the handle allows protects the young plants. 8. Bolt a cultivator shovel to each tool holder as shown at (8). ADJUSTMENTS Attach cultivator to tractor with draw bar pin. Place tractor and cultivator on flat surface, such as cement drive or walk. Adjust clamp (5) so that each of the center shovels are of equal height. Then adjust the four tool standards (6) so that the shovels are the same height as the two in the center. The adjustment for the height of the handles is in the draw bar end. Loosen nuts (A), set handles at desired height, then tighten nuts securely. The depth crank (2) regulates the depth of cultivation and raises tools for transporting. MAINTENANCE Grease wheel bearings daily. OPERATION The garden can be more easily cared for by planting rows the long way of the plot. ^^vSelect the proper cultivating steels so the maximum results are obtained. Seedlings require different attention than sturdy plants. On well-prepared land the 6-inch weeding hoe is the ideal tool for cultivating little seedlings. Under trash conditions the wide angle of the 12-inch weeding knife tends to clear itself of trash. These are both surface-type tools for mulching and shallow cultivation. Do not set these tools too deep as they should only break up the crust without throwing dirt. The duck-foot cultivator teeth are recommended for maintaining a mulch when the land is comparatively free from weeds. The following list shows row spacings for various crops. The tallest plants are in wider rows to permit your tractor to work the middles when plants get too tall for straddle cultivation. Vegetables requiring the same spacing should be planted together and in continuous rows so the tractor can work the longest period of time. Beans (bush) 16-18 Leeks 16 Beets 15 Onions (green) 15 Brussel sprouts 36 Parsley 15-18 Cabbage 36 Parsnips 15-18 Carrots 15 Peas (green) 18 Cauliflower 36 Peppers 30-36 Celeriac 30 Potatoes 42-48 Celery 30-36 Radishes 14 Corn (sweet) 30-36 Rhubarb 36-48 Eggplant 36 Spinach 15-18 Kale 18 Tomato 42-60 Lettuce 15-18 Turnips 12-18 NOTE: Since the principal purpose or function of cultivation is weed control, it follows that cultivation should be done at the time most favorable for killing weeds, which is just as they are breaking through the surface. Practically all the benefits derived from cultivation are secured from shallow cultivation. Deep cultivation, if practiced, should be carried on during the early stages of growth and the depth lessened as the plants grow larger and the roots increase in length. All tools on this cultivator have an individual adjustment for depth and an individual adjustment for pitch.
