40” NOTE: When adjusting tines, be sure the cutting edges enter the soil first. MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION ENGINE - Service engine in accordance with the engine manufacturer’s owner’s guide. NOTE: To drain oil, remove oil filler plug and tip tiller on its side. Drain oil while the engine is warm. See engine manual for filling instructions. GEAR CASE - Proper lubricant level should be up to the front pipe plug. Check with tiller on a level surface. Add lubricant through the vented pipe plug hole. Add enough to bring level up to front plug hole. Use Molilube SAE 140 Gear Oil or equivalent. Gear case should be maintained with five (5) ounces of lubricant. Lubricate the upper bushing in the gear case with a small amount of grease. Do not over lubricate as any excess will enter the gear case proper. Use a high pressure gun grease. THROTTLE - Periodically lubricate throttle control lever and throttle control wire assembly with a few drops of light oil (SAE 10 or 20) for ease of operation. FORM NO. 770-912E ! I BELTS - “V” Belts and pulley assemblies are accessible at the rear of the tiller. The belts are changed as described below. To remove large belt — 1.

Check pivot bracket assembly locknuts for excessive tightness. 3. Check control rod for improper assembly. If adjustment tube is attached to lower end instead of upper end, it may bind on control lever and prevent full use of tension spring. 4. If spring tension is still insufficient, adjust to another mounting hole on control lever. 5. Some measure of belt adjustment may be made by loosening the mounting bolts on the adjustment plate and moving as needed. This adjustment is usually used for reverse drive wheel adjustments. 6. Large pulley and belt may be rubbing on lower belt guard. 7. Idler pulley must operate freely. 8. Belt guard or clips must not touch the belt when it is tightened.
